The classic kit by Revell, originally released in 1957.
This model depicts Fokker Dreidecker 1 (Fokker Dr.1, 'Triplane 1' in English), serial number 425/17.
Serial number 425/17 was one of several Fokker Dr.1s flown by Baron Manfred von Richthofen, and was the one in which he was shot down and killed near Vaux-sur-Somme, France, by British ace Arthur Roy Brown on April 21, 1918.
There is apparently not enough photographic evidence of this aircraft to be able to accurately portray its paint scheme. Manfred von Richthofen described it as a 'rotes flugzeug [red aircraft],' but that doesn't automatically mean it was wholly red.
Because of this, I didn’t try to model it according to the best educated guesses, but instead modeled it the way it has classicly been depicted.
With the exception of the addition of some 10- and 20-lb test black fishing line for rigging and control cables, I built it pretty much straight out of the box.
For painting and finishing, I used:
Revell RVL-34136 Carmine Red
Revell 36188 Matt Ochre
Tamiya TS-68 Wooden Deck Tan
Tamiya TS-6 Matte Black
Tamiya TS-26 Pure White
Tamiya X-10 Gun Metal
Testors 1146 Metallic Silver
Testors 1260T Lacquer Dullcote
Testors 1261T Lacquer Glosscote
This aircraft belongs to the Shuttleworth Collection and was photographed at the Shuttleworth Air Show (Heritage) on 2nd September 2018.
A USAF F35 Lightning II performing during the Lightning demo at the 2025 Abbotsford International Airshow. It was an awesome demo, it was cut short however due to technical problems. A warning light came on and the pilot had to land. That said she put on a good show, didn't hold back, and she nearly broke the sound barrier.
A second RCAF CF-18 Hornet performing the CF-18 Demo in the evening show of the 2022 Abbotsford Airshow. It cool seeing the demo at night, the Hornet's afterburners could be fully seen. It was a loud demo too, the pilot didn't hold back.

Colorado Springs, CO - I guess when you start the game with a pair of F-22 Raptors flying over Falcon Stadium, you can't help but down Navy by a score of 30-21. Go Air Force! Go Falcons!
These two magnificent aircraft belong to the 95th Fighter Squadron (nicknamed "The Boneheads" and "The Home of Mr. Bones"). The squadron motto is "Death with Finesse". I'm also told they were being flown by pilots with the callsigns "Blaster" (flight lead / right plane) and "Rum" (wingman / left plane). More information on the squadron can be found at: 95TH FIGHTER SQUADRON FACTSHEET
A US Navy E/A18G Growler flying during the Growler demo at the 2025 Abbotsford Airshow. It was loud and the pilots didn't hold back. I can still hear the afterburners when I look at these shots.
Two Boeing F/A-18F "Super Hornet" flying upwards into the heavens and with one plane firing flares as a countermeasure and make infrared-guided missile(s) seek out the heat signature from the flare rather than the aircraft's engines.
