Beautiful! Very nice indeed.

I think this one is even better than your DIII. The metalwork looks much better. How did you finish the (and discolor) the metal cowl and spinner?

Hi dad

WOW that is a very very beautiful Albatros. It is really nice to see a D.II.
I like the pictures very much also. I think it is one of your very best builds so far. Absolutely stunning, your weathering looks really great.
It is a great inspiration, and I can not wait to have a try with your decals on my OAW.

Noah synes også den er flot, farfars flyver, farfars flyver, siger han.

I am very happy that I could help you with the wing crosses and lending you the Datafile, it is a real pleasure to share.

I think it is really interesting to see the black/white pictures, and how dark the yellow wood looks. I am wondering if this could mean that all Albatrosses were this straw-yellow colour and none really were dark/red stained as seen on some profiles. What do you think?

Kind regards

Anders

Hey Kofoed:

I know everyone else has already said this, but that looks AWESOME!!!!

It is almost as if you could climb in the cockpit and start her up! You have done an excellent job.

Gorgeous!!

Can't get enough of that wood grain!

Are Bob's Buckles easy to work with? I'm starting to think about purchasing some for my next build...

Again, brilliant work!
