After a long break, it is back to the Bristol Box kite, this is quite large and fragile and so I have been allowing joints to fully cure before moving on. Ready for a coat of bleached dope.

Well after a few weeks off and having no modelling room I have decided to try to get back into it,
This is the last of this series:
The AVRO Triplane, 1910, designed by Mr. A.V. Roe. Originally fitted with a 9HP J.A.P engine, later models had the 35HP Green engine.
