Default Orline Sopwith Pup Build

Just wanted to post some progress on the 1/5 Pup i have been building latley.

Kit contents are quite old some wood needed replacing and extra bracing here and there. All in all i was pleased with the contents though.

Perhaps anyone wants to add any tips or suggestions on finishing touches, ive still got quite abit to do before i can consider starting covering

Hope you enjoy go easy on me its my first Bipe and WW1 build

Just received a Orline Sopwith Pup kit no. 792. There are two items missing, the cowl and the plans. Is this the same kit you are building?

When you are finished with your build, would it be possible to purchase a copy of the plans? If so I will send you my e-mail or phone no., which ever you prefer. Thanks

Wont be a problem at all. I could get these copied and send to you. however it would be in sections because these plans are HUGE i cant find a copier who can scan the entire thing. Probably 4 sections or so.

Either way you can shoot me a PM with your info and we can work something out.

trax540,

I'm on the road and will be stopping by a WWI aircraft museum (its in Topeka KS I think), do you need any close up pics? I'm not sure what they have, I'm just squeezing a visit in to my schedule.

I know it's been a long time since you posted anything to this link, but I have come across a kit without plans and I was wondering if you still have yours?

Regards, Dean.

I just stumbled upon this kit on my local Craigslist. After purchasing I found everything to be there except for the Vickers machine gun, and the instructions. Does any one have a set, or could someone scan me the instructions? Please!

Any help appreciated

Default Orline Pup plan

Greetings from Michigan.
I realize this question comes from an old post, but do you still have the Orline Sopwith Pup plan?
If so, would it possible to purchase a copy?
Thanks, and Happy New year.
Craig
