From Airliners.net. I've taken an interest in WW1 aircraft and I thought these shots were interesting. The first one makes an excellent desktop background.

The pic of the DR.1's is really nice.

I love the Tripe, and Shoreham is Hagars neck of the woods, so keep an eye on his threads

Funny you should mention that. My Shoreham pix have probably been deleted by now so here's the Tripehound again.

It's a full sized replica. The owner told me he built it himself from the original plans.

Durn it. I HAVE to get the photos of the Sopwith Strutter - well, no fabric, no wings, but still a Strutter - developed.
