John, You actually risk that beautiful bird by putting her in the air??? You have more guts than I, Sir!!! I've always wondered: can the F/F rubber guys (and girls) resist the urge to make "machine gun" sounds as their bird passes overhead??? Rob

Thanks Rob.....

If you tie the two ends of the rubber motor together in such a way that one left-over end is long, it taps against the inside fuselage frame as it unwinds.

Not that I have ever done that...

This way it keeps the slobber off your shirt.

Hello
I got the DPC:

Pfalz DXII, DIII, and the DRI. (pre lazer cut)
Fokker DRI, EV/DVIII,
BE2, and the Albatros DVa (lazer cut)

Unfortunately I haven't had the time to get to them with the exception of the Pfalz DIII, which is close to being finished.
I got a fetish for the balsa stick models, when I was a kid the Guillow WWI kits were the sh :-X.
I think Dpc is doing a great job for moving forward by doing not only the common but the obscure aircraft as well.
