Fokker D.VII artwork question
OK, the picture of the new Fokker D.VII is very small ...
... but it seems that the burning Spad on the right side is "without pilot" while the parachute of the pilot "without aircraft" opens on the left side. The scene gives the impression that pilot and plane belonged together just a few seconds before this snapshot. Am I wrong - a French pilot of WW1 with a parachute?!?

Roden & the SE 5a
Gentlemen,
Although nothing has been said; I'd be surprised if Roden weren't considering if not working on a 1/32 SE 5a. I know that they have copies of the original plans so unless sales of their other large scale offerings are disapointing it would seem to be a reasonable expectation.
I wish someone would produce some good pilot figures in the larger scales. I have been intending to try it for years but haven't ever got to it. Doubtless there are many more skilled than I who are in the same situation.
Best regards,
Terry

Big SE.5
If they just enlarged their 1/48 SE.5 to 1/32 I'd be happy. What a nice kit!
