[wayne556517]

Hannover 513/18 from FEA 11, based at Brieg/Breslau during World War 1 in a
pale blue livery. Our aircraft comes with GW017 Workshop set which comprises
a mechanic repairing a Maxim gun and a rookie pilot - namely Wolfram von
Richthofen, the 4th cousin to the famed Red Baron.

Wolfram reported to FEA 11 in March of 1918 for advanced training, he was
later assigned to Manfred's JG1 on April 4, 1918 and first flew with the Red
Baron on April 21, 1918, the day the Red Baron was KIA. Wolfram eventually
went on to score 8 victories and survived the war, he also served in the
Luftwaffe during WW2 rising to the rank of Field Marshall, only to die in
July 1945 from a brain tumour.

Please note we will add pictures of the GW017 figures to our website with
our Hannover when they become available. The pilot figures shown at the
moment are for scale reference purposes only and are not included.
There are a total of 12 Hannovers available worldwide priced at $525/£365
each.

Another outstanding 2-seater from TG, the elegant Hannover CL. Can't wait to see the crew figures that go with this sleek looking beaut. More excellent work from the aircraft factory of TG. -- Al

The aircraft looks excellent. However it looks a bit too clean for me ?

Thought you Thomas Gunn lads would like to see these - from the London Show today.

It might not be that apparent from the photos but they are very nicely weathered.

Cheers, Roy.
