My father has just completed this Snipe. Now back to the Bristol with any luck!

Martin, your kit-builder did a great job with this one. I'm particularly impressed with his treatment of the bracing and control-cable wiring. Well done, Sir!:cool:

Great to see the great "Down-Under Aircraft Works" at it again. Looks terrific. I have always liked the Snipe since first reading of Barker's epic, late war dogfight. -- Al
 
Lovely dio Jack and a pat on the back for dad for the excellent bird!

Thank you very much for your kind words. Dad appreciates the feedback although he is not a big user of Forums. He also refuses to buy things online because of the potential for fraud ... so when he needs something we use my card!

He went through four sets of decals to get it right and while he feels there are some flaws in his effort, it looks pretty good to me. From memory, the kit was not quite up to the usual Wingnuts standard. Looks good though, and you can't beat a biplane!

Did you tell him about the cardboard planes? interested in his reaction.

:wink2:
 
Martin,

Please tell your Dad I think he's done a fantastic job anyone would be proud to have it in their collection
