Morane G replica roll out

Hi all, last weekend I managed to roll out the Morane G replica for the Aviation heritage centre at Omaka.
While it has been built to fly, it wont be flown in the foresseable future.
Im still doing some detail work, the alloy cowl and panels should be gloss black, and a few small details need to be added.

That's a very nice Pfalz replica... too bad you painted it all wrong!

in answer to your questions

sadly, its not my plane, so the customer has final say in what they want to do with it, id love to see it fly.

No more projects on the go at the moment, but a hannover Cl111a appeals

yes, Pfalz replica, I could easily do a Pfalz now I have most of the work on CAD

Yes, a Hannover Cl.III certainly would be a great project!

Which type of Pfalz do you have in mind? I have quite a lot of information relating to the D.XII.

Well, if you paint THAT one black and white, and add crosses, you have a Pfalz EI. It was a license-built Morane.
