For my next model, I chose the Fokker Dr. 1, which was Baron Manfred von Richthofen's favored plane. Note the iron cross - the 'Balkenkeuz' on the side of the fusalage. Each squadron had its own color scheme, and I selected Jasta 11's - "The Flying (...) (23 years ago, 15-Nov-01, to lugnet.build.military)
