Very nice, particularly Grinnell-Milne's plane. I've been thinking about doing that one, and it's good to know decals for it exist.

Thumbs up Red SE5 ?
HI,

great SE-5! Is that a WW1 machine? Who flew it? Any more details to that plane?

Thank you in advance

It's SE5a C'1149, flown by Capt D.W. Grinnell-Milne of 56 squadron from October 1918 on. Grinnell-Milne had been a POW and got the not-so-kind name Schweinhund from his German guards. If I've understood right, it is not certain, whether the fuselage was painted red already during the last weeks of the war or only after the armistice. I think it was after the armistice, since RAF policy was quite strictly against colourful personal decorations, wasn't it?

Beautiful! German mounts aren’t the only aircraft that look good in red. I like your albatros C.III as well.

Mikko, Having built the SE kit I must say yours is extremely well done! The CIII is also really nice! All three are great additions and representatives of your crafmanship!
