    Another very emotive picture Barry.
    Emotive in so far as it will undoubtedly lead to me emptying my pockets of even more cash to procure models in order to reproduce that flight.
    Just when I thought the therapy was working too.

    As you can see I have already taken inspiration from this picture. Two Reverisco models, nice plane to fly.

    The planes are superb George, you've done it again.
    What I am particularly interested in is the Cammo. Is it Reverisco as well? I've been searching for that pattern for over a week now, and thought I'd seen all the Reverisco patterns on the site.

    B4,
    Really nice pair of SSWs. The only white one I've seen previously was an early D.III with Jasta 19, so could have yellow and black tailfeathers like the Dr.Is it was serving alongside.
