I anderstand , that you like this forum , it is easy to see that your whole social life is in the net .
But I still do not anderstand why nobody tells Pavel about his mistakes ? You guys building Fokkers , you must know about it , for example the hinges . Or is it , that you just do not know ?

This is a fantastic forum for education on old aircraft, specially WW-I.

Garfield, I would really like to know what the oversights are in Pavel's Fokker parts. Would you so kindly list some or all of them for us here on the forum.

Your knowledge will greatly help others to avoid the same errors.

Thanks,
WF2

I've been watching this thread from the wings and I'm getting a little annoyed. Garfield: Who are you and what have you done that would inspire us to listen to you? All I've heard from you so far are vague insinuations, insulting implications, and a general air of unsupported superiority. Since we have some of the foremost experts and builders right here on this forum, I can't help but wonder why no one else is criticizing. Either explain what you're talking about (in detail), or shut the hell up and get off the forum. Nobody has time for this kind of crap.

I'm not a expert in DVII too. This is first one. Any comments are welcome. I hope to build more and more pictures will be posted soon.

Where did I hear these kind of remarks before?
Garfield please show us your D VII if you've ever build one.

Fair warning, Gentlemen: if this turns into another foodfight I'll close it down.

Pavel
From what my friend and I have seen of your work .
It seems to be of a very first rate quality
What I want to know is have you soldered the tank yet or just made the components
What kind of rivets are you going to use ???????
Keep the pics coming.
