Default RE: Pfalz DIII resources -- Photos, Drawings, Plans, etc.

Hi all,

I have been looking at the Pfalz and I can see it sitting on my bench. It's funny how you can almost see it "in your head" of what is going to look like. The biggest drawback for my project is the engine. I can make a "look alike" Mercedes DIII but a scale like yours is hard to beat since there is no plastic model in 1/6 scale. This plane will be much more in scale than the Fun Aero Albatros so I am more picky about the scale details. When I told my friends that I am building a Pfalz from a plan, there were only TWO types of comments:

1. Are you kidding? You are asking for PUNISHMENT!!!
2. What's a Pfalz? Is it a Park Flyer?

The plan is on its way and Alan has been very helpful in answering my questions. I can't wait to get started on this unique bird! DP
