Mike: Thank's for the tips...for the S.P.A.D. XIII...I will complete this a/c with some newer methods...as noted in an earlier post, I started this particular kit in 1968...and most of the parts have been prepainted..so I hope to preserve as much of the original build as possible (sucker for nostalgia..eh?)....as I've done some some research on this a/c I'm impressed with how significant this technology was in 1917/18...and the model looks 'way cool' as they say... ... We even called the Skyraider a SPAD uring the Vietman war.
So, I hope to get cracking on this long over due completion so that it will be done by the end og the G.B.
Thank's for your interest.
Cheers,
ggc
