Chek 2,219 Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 I was always surprised at the single pilot seat up front. I asked my ex-wife if her mum could remember any details about Jim's plane, but all that came to her mind was a group of them were flying from RNAY Sydenham over to the Lake District for a climbing weekend back in the early '60s. But the 80 mph headwind was too strong and they had to turn round and head back or they would have run out of fuel and ended up in the Irish Sea, short of their destination. Not a great deal of power to spare in those 200hp Gipsy Queens. Out2gtcha and mozart 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Jennings Heilig 15,617 Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 Mine's on the way. Interestingly, unlike tracking from everywhere else I've ever purchased stuff, apparently Polish Post tracking information isn't available on the USPS web site. You have to go to the Polish Post or a third party tracking site. Rick Griewski and mozart 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Jennings Heilig 15,617 Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 As soon as I get my kit (which is on the way) and test fit all the relevant parts, I’ll post something on how much and and how to order. Zac_Zolar 1 Link to post Share on other sites
thierry laurent 6,956 Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 Mine arrived this morning. The kit is indeed VERY nice. I simply think that cleaning the 3D printed parts will need a lot of caution. I was also surprised by the size of the fuselage! mozart 1 Link to post Share on other sites

kkarlsen 7,105 Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 Wow how lucky are you allowed to get? This is great! I coincidentally stumbled across another online archive. This time from the city of Esbjerg in Denmark (the place I was born). Three color photos of 'my' DH 89 Dragon Rapide OY-DIN, photos dated around 1939... The blue color has been a major issue for me and I had already settled for a much lighter version. But now I have solid evidence of the correct blue, so now I have no genuine reason for not getting started on this beautiful 'bird' anymore.
