The Dude Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 This ought to be interesting but what ever they bring out I will gladly build it, Pup7309 and Out2gtcha 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Out2gtcha Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Id take a HB CC for sure! Would the HB KDW have carried the Austro-Daimler 6? Pup7309 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So maybe hope for a single "early" KDW, although I think if we did get a flying boat, Id actually prefer the CC. Pup7309 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tnarg Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 The Hansa Brandenburg CC number 24 was Gottfried Banfield's if I recall correctly. He was one of the most famous Austro Hungarian aces. He had a long and fascinating life, and was possibly the only ace to achieve five victories in a flying boat. Any of these kit possibilities could be very interesting, I am very pleased to see talk of an Austro Hungarian subject.

Tnarg Banfield flew a few types but yes he is worth reading up on, and worthy of a WNW kit. Edited August 28, 2019 by Pup7309 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazzas Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 The Phonix would be a cool looking build. Ugly and clunky enough to say WWI, and much prettier than any flying boat. Pup7309 and scvrobeson 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's, of course, assuming WNW are making an Albatros D.III (Oeffag). There were a number of other Austro-Hungarian aircraft that used the Austro-Daimler 6. Brandenburg D.I, anyone? Hmmm...looks like Copper State Models might just beat WNW to kitting the D.I! From their FB page, confirmed it's 1/32.

Radub Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 The 225 HP Austro Daimler was also used on the MAG version of the Fokker D VII. I hope WNW will do one and thus "complete" the D VII family. I, for one, will be very pleased with one. Radu Rick Griewski and Pup7309 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
