| Elevator Anj wanted me to correct his statement by saying it was a Neiuport 24 that crashed. Article is as follows:
PILOT KILLED IN BIPLANE AT RHINEBECK AIR SHOW
A veteran pilot and flight instructor dies after crashing a WWI replica biplane during a Hudson Valley air show.
Vincent Nasta, of Wading River, was flying a single-engine biplane in a simulated dogfight Sunday afternoon with a German plane when it crashed over 1,000 feet from the Aerodrome. The plane landed in a wooded area and caught fire. Nasta, 47, was the sole occupant. Nasta was an art teacher at Riverhead High School and an illustrator of children's books who flew planes recreationally. |

| I last worked on my Newport back in January, my day job building elevators has really interfered with building airplanes, I will retire in 10 months 2 weeks & 3 days, but who's counting |

| I too am very interested to know what you have in mind for the paint job? We are in mourning here in upstate NY as a pilot demonstrating dogfighting died when his Newport 11 broke in half, at The Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome, earlier this month |

| Moos, the Nieuport is coming along very nice. What kind of paint scheme are you thinking about? |

Even Hoompdah Doompdah's men couldn't put him back together again. Trail fit before final sanding. |

| Very nice indeed Moostang! Did the step come with the kit or did you have to scratchbuild? Either way a job very well done. |

No nitrate dope in house yet, so 50/50 white glue used to adhere tissue. Small footstep installed as per researched photos. |

Figured if I'll try the Le Rhone, might as well try a prop too. Well..... I am a carpenter. |

| FOF. Fear of flashbacks. No, actually will finally complete this one next before another is started. Question? How hard is 30+ year old glue to sand? May even attempt an engine build. Decals are still mint. Actually this kit has two sheeets of decals. |

| Moos....looks like you should pu this puppy together....it has been waiting for you a long time |

| Just call me a ho (hoarder). I still have board games such as Stratego and Risk (mint condition)from my early teens. Working stereos such as a Phase Linear 400 component system with sales slip from '76. A Tamiya Bruiser monster truck from the 80's , now 3/4's rebuilt worth a small fortune. Forgedaboutit. Can't seem to part with them. |
