Well, to quote Han Solo, sometimes I even amaze myself! This morning I decided I was going to take a shot at creating a paper model of the Burgess-Dunne biplane to use with All Quiet. And here it is, 9PM, and I’m done! Well, sort of. I still have to do the instructions and stuff, but I hope to have this for sale in a week or so. It looks really nice and the whole model fits on a single letter-sized sheet. It is not a perfect replica of the real Burgess-Dunne, I made it a two-seater with a gunner in the front. I also eliminated one pair of wing struts to simplify construction. However, I won’t deceive you: this thing is a real bear to assemble. Definitely not for novice modelers. Hope you like it!

Wow you went a bit crazy with that Scott! I've just got to the bit in your book with the trials last night, great inspiration there.

Awesome! Air power for AQ in PT! I've got to work up the stats for this one as well. Will get back to you all on that - will use 'standard' XYZ format, I know its only going to a have a Z+1, but still, it looks great! Congrats!
