Aaaahh But Tony, a piece of the original fabric of that little red Fokker DOES exist somewhere, actually the painted fuselage cross, and the seat and one or two other bits !
Can't recall where right now but it may be Oz or Canada ?
I bet you knew that already though didn't you ?

Now why didn't I think of doing that, gotta be worth a couple of mill to the right (read gullible) collector!

I can see it all now.
Rebuild the Red Baron's little red Fokker.
Turn a few heads and make it into the papers when I turn up at Old Warden in The One And Only Genuine Fokker DrI Triplane as flown by Baron Manfred von Richtofen no less !

Well at least he sat in the seat anyway.

TaTa
Mick, keeping on day-dreaming, still determined to get there one of these fine days, watch this (air) space !
