WW1 Kit Build aircraft ?

Bloody hell! If you didn’t know any better, you’d have said they were the real McCoy!

www.replicraft.us.fm are a great source of accurate drawings for many WW1 A/C. Well worth a look;)

Correct the IO 320 is a flat four, the cylinders you see protruding are false cylinders that were made and bolted on under the lycoming.:D

Correct.

well if thats the case,he’s done a wonderful job, !!, 😀

I wonder if he saw that Le Rhone engine on Milweb for sale, a few days ago ??

Correct.

The engine is a IO 320 lycoming, the guns were made by Paul and they ARE capable of being fired with the use of propane:diablo: Not sure what the CAA would have to say about that though:rolleyes:

Now I am Confused :confused::confused:,

the Lycoming is a Flat horizontal engine, not a radial or Rotary , so that must mean those cylinders protruding from under the Cowl are false ones ???

the guns were made by Paul and they ARE capable of being fired with the use of propane:diablo:

I feel a new WW1 epic needs made… :diablo:

I think i am in Love ,LOL, that Dr1 is bloody fabulous,
I only wish i could do such a thing, as many others of you,
I gotta keep trying to win those Lotto tickets LOL,:D

I also wondered , what engine did he use, and the Spandau Guns look marvelous, I wouldnt mind one of them on my wall, I know real ones are
exremely rare, I imagine in the states there is a Pattern for making very good
Mock up MG08 Spandau guns,
Nearly found some on E-bay, But Ebay pulled the plug before i could bid:(

with all these copies, I wonder what next, A Gotha Bomber perhaps, ???:D

I did read somewhere that an American enthusiast added a bit more realism to his WW1 replica (Nieuport 11, I think) by fitting propane guns to the plane…!

A number of US-based replicas have had these fitted at one time or another. There’s a recent thread about them on TheAerodrome forum link I posted above.

Great Dr1 pics, I almost ducked when I saw that massive head-on shot! 😀
