:haha: When I saw this thread title I thought there was a late war German wonder weapon mounted on a panther chassis firing rockets to save Berlin or something.
I love the DR1!

A beautiful display of wood and metalworking :thumbup:
Curiously, like many others- I guess, I assumed that the German Triplane was unique to the WW1 combat arena. In fact, the very first tripane to see action was the British Sopwith Triplane.

One thing I have not mentioned is of all the various projects I have completed and had the satisfaction of doing them, this one is different. As I move around the yard,when I leave the place when I come back I always am greeted with is presence . Brightly shining in the sun. It really catches the eye. And I am so glad I did this project.
