Here is a bit of fun concerning the Eduard Fokker Dr.I kit instructions and PE.

In this kit the starting magneto is the object molded in place at the pilot's left shoulder. The "Bosch" starting magneto (PE 4 ) they include (that they tell you to put at the pilot's left foot) is bogus. It was designed for inline motors. You will find this echoed in the Fokker F.I thread by Brad Cancian but they told him to put it on the other side by the foot.
