1/3 100% scratch built from enlarged Norman Dietchman plans from 1958. The original design had a 41" w/s so a lot of work went into changing the plans. The model is powered by a DLE111 swinging a 30x10 prop. with this engine combo absolutely NO nose weight was required. All sheet metal was hand made from aluminum. The model is covered in Solartex with rib stitching and hand painted markings. Aces of Iron pilot. Scott

Scott,
Very nice. Well done. I thought it was Teus' Eindecker at first. (that's a complement). Great pictures and scale detail.

Thanks guys! I followed Teus's Eindecker build here on RCSB. He gave me several great ideas, info and most of all inspiration for my build.
