Fokker Dr 1 plane
This plane is made primarily of meranti. The main difficulty was to make the holes for the wooden dowels, so I had to build a JIG for them (See also the video from LBD). The number of parts is reasonable, and so is the build time. As usual, Alex did a lot of work, and the link to his video is below. The size of the Fokker Dr.I is approximately 40 (L) x 50 (W) x 25 (H) cm.

Dutchy, just watch out for lawsuits,
I didn't see anything about no parachutes.

I didn't see anything about it in the instruction video.
Getting closer to the Corsair plans I am waiting on, oh and the stagecoach too.
I've already suggested a SPAD or NEUPORT or SOPWITH CAMEL as mates for the Fokker D1. Could also include an Albatross. ;-)
Ready to fly the clear blue skies around the world though the trip might take longer than the build. Beautiful excellence as usual Jan.

Brother made a balsa kit of that when we were kids, I did a biplane. Love that vintage!
Awesome as always Jan!
Of course you need a dog house to go-with:
