I build a kit similar to this as my first venture into "grownup" model kits as opposed the airfix plastic type some years ago. prior to my Victory and Bismark builds

I remember that I was given the option to cover the aircfart with Red fabric (The Red Baron) but opted to leave the skeleton showing

Likely the partwork version called 'Build a Fokker Triplane' to build the Red Baron's famous red Fokker Dr1 Triplane.

Nice build Gil, thanks for sharing Cool

Is there any indication if this is a "special" edition? The return of the wood prop would be nice!

The partwork version had a wooden prop. I don't think there is any change in the standard kit other than it making a return for the anniversary.
