    Always a delight to see! Such clear, unpretentious design, yet so much potential!

    I do love Hendon. Gotta feel sorry for the Sopwith Camel they hung in front of the D.VII's guns though....

    Nice pics; I wish the Hendon was closer to me
    Is the colour scheme anyone in particular, or a generic?

    Question

    Very unusual purple & black patten on the nose section.
    I have not seen that anywhere previously.

    Do they say what Jasta the Aircraft flew in?

    Interesting to see the difference between the lozenge pattern on the fuselage and wing undersides.
