Hi All,
Being new to WW1 plane modelling, I chose the Eduard weekend kit for my initiations and after a bit of web surfing, some questions came up and I was hoping all the gurus here can help out:
1) Can I assume the engine is incorrect in the kit as it was a Mercedez engine?
2) The painting instructions called for grey bands. Was the plane in all white?
3) There appears to be a cut in the left fuselage to facilitate easy entry and exit for Goering. Is this relevant for this plane?
4) I have contradictory instructions to lengthen the propellers for the quick release prop hub?

Many thanks for any assistance rendered
