My Friend nether am I lol .. it was some ideas i had.. and remember the speed loss of the DII was only slight i don't remember any speed loss from radiator types from one to an other do you?? humm. but Junker did extensive test with the radiator playment and found out that under the wing or fuselage was much better place for it like the under the wing of the JI and under the fuselage of the iron airplane so it must have some merit even then no mater the hp !! ...

Ear-radiator on D.I and D.II

@Mike and Doug

Your both right, the ear radiator "eats" the speed in the air like Dumbo's ears

Mike, you can't see the second radiator waterpipe on the model -- under the Gun's.
But by an open cowling you can see the header-tank, the upper-pipe from left to right radiator and the Y-tube.

...............it's a good tip from you, Mike, -- I will ask Koloman.............

Dear Bertl

This is really ubelieveabley GOOD ! You even attached the throtle cable to the linkage on top of the Carbuetor ! I hadnt seen a glimpse of the incredable job you did on the Magnetos either !! This is true Museum Quality work.

Yes thank you I see now how the header tank is attaching both from and rear.

Yours Mike

@Bob @Miguel1 @mgtaylor

Thank you very much for your kind words, friends!

Mike, I have seen, the throttle cable on the carburator is on "full-power"
No, it's not museum quality , it's only much funny to built all so small things.
...............by the way, i have forget to built the interrupter gear drive cable for the Spandau's
...............but it's not to late
