Tony's Fokker Dr.1

This plane is built from a Great Planes ARF.  I recovered parts of it because I couldn't stand having another Red Baron triplane.  This plane served in the same jasta as Manfred von Richtofen, but the pilot is unknown.  The model features, scale Spandua guns, dummy engine, and monokote covering.

UPDATE:   At the 2006 Balsa USA Scale Classic in Menomonee, WI, I cart-wheeled the Dr.1 attempting a cross-wind landing.  The plane was repaired, but left sitting on the shelf awaiting new covering.  I finally sold the project in the spring of 2007 to Mike Huth.  He finished the plane in the colors of the EAA Museum's Dr.1.  Mike crashed this plane later that year.                                                     -Tony
