Listed as the "Starboard" flying wires on the official Sopwith plan. I guess the Sopwith was more formal in direction than the USAF!!

Flying wires are double and pass thru the tip of the middle wing. On this model they are structural and really lock the wings.

Flying wires. The factory chart lists their diameter..little over an inch. More like a rod. Similar diameter on the LG and cabane wire.

Aha....and Urinal Tube Day is the day after Pitot Tube Day. I'm looking forward to seeing it..... :-)

Today was Pitot tube day. FYI ...Pitot tube day always falls on the Thursday after ash Wednesday.

Ah yes, a gentle zephyr! Not quite what one would expect over the skies of Russia but funny, anyway.

I know, but it gives the pilot a gentle zephyr. Thinking about the larger prop as this adventure is winding down. I may laminate some veneer this afternoon to start the prop production.

That little prop will never get this thing off the ground!

It is getting hard to find gas resistant rubber "O" rings for fuel line installs.

I hooked the pump to the engine and fuel tank.

Thanks, it looks much better in normal size, on the plane. I will hook it up with piping later today.

Only one small step towards completion today.....The FUEL PUMP!

The Pfalz D-IIIa, my next attempt at building a bit of history.

Moos you must be psychic. Kay, at aerodrome RC, cut my next build this past Saturday. It arrived today. VA has enough Fokkers, but I do not recall seeing a Pfalz D-IIIa!!!

Hey, you could always do a Fokker DR-1. Nice.
