FOKKER DR1
by Model Airways Wood and Metal Kit An exceptional aircraft translated into an extraordinary 1:16 scale model This historically accurate aircraft reproduces virtually every detail of the original Fokker Dr.
1.
We've translated this famous WWI fighter into a 1:16 scale kit that fits into a realistic replica.
We use laser cut basswood and birch plywood, precise castings of Britannia metal, brass, copper, aluminum, steel and rubber.
The most interesting feature of the Model Airways Fokker Dr.1 kit is its open airframe.
Normally hidden under layers of fabric or canvas, we leave the laser-cut wood ribs and cast metal frames uncovered to show off the intricacies of the construction.
You'll find cast metal fuselage bulkheads, wing ribs and pilot seats, basswood fuselage spars, and wing rib caps.
The cockpit is reproduced down to the smallest detail, with tachometer, gauges and compass.
An authentic Oberursel UP II 9 cylinder rotary engine, made up of over 33 highly detailed Britannia metal parts, is a miniature design wonder complete with carburetor, oil pump, spark plugs and valve springs.
The Model Airways Fokker Dr.1 is sure to impress any model builder looking for superior detail, unparalleled authenticity and uncompromising quality of materials.
Six quality blueprint sheets and a 54-page illustrated instruction manual set the stage for a museum-quality masterpiece.

Scale : 1:16
The scale 1:16 is used for large figurines, but also for model cars and armored vehicles.
A 1:16 scale model will be 16 times smaller than the original.
For example, a car whose actual length is 4m will be 10 inches / 25 cm long in the 1:16 scale (400/16 = 25).
The figurines in the scale 1:16 are about 5 inches / 12cm high.
