<strong>Fokker</strong> D.<strong>VI</strong> <strong>by</strong> <strong>Hal</strong> <strong>Sanford</strong><br />

Added August 2005<br />

The Eduard 1/48th scale <strong>Fokker</strong> D.<strong>VI</strong> caught <strong>Hal</strong>'s attention because it offered a chance<br />

to build a model that is almost completely covered <strong>by</strong> decals. The pale blue fuselage band<br />

is the only major painted surface. <strong>Hal</strong> built his D.<strong>VI</strong> essentially out of the box. The kit<br />

includes all the lozenge decals, white metal, photo etched details and film for the<br />

instrument dials.<br />

<strong>Hal</strong> reports that the kit was a bit of challenge. Like many short run Czech kits, it lacks<br />

locating pins and holes for the struts. <strong>Hal</strong>'s only additions were a Bare Metal foil firewall,<br />

Aeromaster rib tapes and .001" diameter stainless steel wire for the rigging. Overall, he's<br />

very happy with the results and is ready to tackle more WWI aircraft.<br />
