I am hoping to have the Albatros lighting pics up today.The Jenny pics will be up when I finish the roll of 24 exposures and have them developed.

While I am online I have a tip on how to make those fiddilly little chock pieces that go at the intersections of the wooden internal structural members in the rudder.Doll house suppliers have various sizes on miniture wooden quarter round available.I simply cut these in pieces and superglue them at the 90 deg intersections leaving them a little longer than required.Then your just sand them down level and then sand off the round part until it is flat and voila you have small triangular chocks. Model on....Cheers! John.

topgun;it is 1/16th scale like the Albatros and the Nieuport.
