Fokker Dr1 updates and avoiding the " naughty list".

[@daviddavis7710]

I considered Hans Korner's scheme for my triplane because like me, he was a motor cycle enthusiast. He was actually killed in an accident when he lost control of his bike on an icy road in December 1918. I used oil based glaze, sometimes know as scumble glaze, mixed with oil based eggshell paint, white spirit and artist colours to get the streaky effect on my Flair Baronette. Merry Christmas.

She looks great Mark, wise choice on the colour scheme, Happy Christmas 👍

Hello Mark Croucher! It will definitely be a beautiful model. And the motor will definitely have enough power to get the bird in the air! I wish you a merry Christmas and a happy new year. Greetings from Lübeck Germany 🎅

[@MarkCroucherRC4fun]

Thank you and all the best for the festive season.

[@MarkCroucherRC4fun]

Thanks, you too!

[@jimh.185]

Merry Christmas Mark! Thank you so much for taking the time to do these videos. I really love to listen to your thoughts while you work through the rebuild. This project will be so beautiful when its done and I absolutely agree with every change you have made. Just curious , will you be putting a cowl face on the front of the cowl or sticking with an open cowl design? Jim in California.

[@MarkCroucherRC4fun]

Glad you like them! Think 🤔 I will be adding a cowl face if not straight away eventually.

[@nonoyorbusness]

Ask Santa for a new large shed! Or a loft conversion!

[@MarkCroucherRC4fun]

Or a bigger dinner table 😂.

[@wrstew1272]

Mine would never let me build on the table. Ever! Seems like she believes that the flat horizontal surface is for other things 😢. Dope? Forgetaboutit! She comes out to the shop and throws the door open because she thinks that she smells something! In the middle of winter and I have it really comfortable. Zenoa engines are great! A little bit heavier than current models but bulletproof. Chainsaw engines are designed to be run hard and last forever 😊. Cheers

Think I got my wife of a Christmas 🎄 don't know how she puts up with me!!!!

[@markcummings150]

And yet swmbo gets her nails done in a haze of acetone fumes without a word ! 🤨

[@joepellissier2091]

Merry Christmas to you and your family. I really enjoy your channel in spite of your funny accent…:lol. Better get that table cleaned off or you will have plenty of coal to use for counter weight in that plane.

[@MarkCroucherRC4fun]

Thanks have a great holiday.

Why is my comment about your fake account on facebook is deleted ???

[@MarkCroucherRC4fun]

Sorry you have lost me ?

[@PierreMilcent]

They are 3 accounts with your name on facebook in Aeromodelisme Passion group. I guess one is real, the 2 others are fake. One living in Britany, one living in Marseille. Can you confirm you are not responsible for this situation ? If this comment is being deleted i am sure you are scamming people on this FB group. Not good.

[@MarkCroucherRC4fun]

Thanks I've just searched and discovered that I've moved to Brittany France !!!! I'll try to sort it out thanks for letting me know.

[@MarkCroucherRC4fun]

@PierreMilcent I live in Gateshead UK I have no idea why they have appeared I have reported these to Facebook, didn't really see why anyone would do it they only seem to be posting model related videos that I have posted in the past ??

[@MarkCroucherRC4fun]

@@PierreMilcent btw I can only assume that the person who has set up these accounts blocked or deleted your comment I never saw it.
