Albatros question

Hello

Just got the Roden kit of a Albatros DIII in 1/32 scale, Have some plans to make a model of a crashed Albatross with a lot of the structure visible.
My question is where to get some nice plans of the body and wing structure of a DIII, have the Windsock Datafile of DIII (oaf) but not much here to use. Have also found the beautiful work of Mark Millers Albatros but this is a DV, Btw is the structure of the DV any similar to the DIII?
All help are much appreciated.

All the best
Per Olav

Hi Milorg
good news is the DIII wing and the Dva wing are virtualy identical.
the fuse however, is entirely different.
well, the same basic dea - but all the structures are different
memorial flight has some good images that show internal structure.

also - you might get more replies if you posted this in the models section.
I'll bet there are quite a few guys who are building thiis kit - and are interested in detailing the internals.

and thanks for the nice comment

Hello Mark

Just checked the Memorila Flight site, the photos of their DIII is just what I need, perfect reference for my next project.

Thank a lot for your help
