I think I know the tri-plane but I'll admit I had to Google it. Being the only Japanese tri-plane made it pretty easy.Those are some very nice looking designs by the way...

Yup, he is a breed apart! And he is brutally honest on how his airplanes come out, none of this BS how it was in perfect trim and flew like a dream on the maiden you see in a lot of other building columns. If its a dog he says so, if it was a nightmare until he fixed such and such he tells you so.

Yeah, excellent. I love the shot with the daylight moon in the background. Can't imagine how you lined that shot up.
