Forget plastic. Build history from the bones up.

The Model Airways Fokker Dr.I Triplane is not your standard model airplane kit. It is an uncompromising, museum-quality masterclass in historical structural replication. Designed by master modelers for true craftsmen, this 1:16 scale kit strips away the fabric skin to leave the intricate, laser-cut wooden ribs and cast-metal fuselage completely exposed.

If you are looking for a weekend plastic glue project, this isn’t it. But if you crave a deeply engaging, highly technical bench-work experience that challenges your skills and results in a jaw-dropping conversation piece, your next build has arrived.


🛠️ The Ultimate Builder’s Kit: 

A True "Structural" Build: Because this is an open-airframe (skeleton) model, every ounce of your craftsmanship stays permanently on display. You aren't hiding your hard work under layers of canvas or plastic—the authentic internal stress lines, wing ribs, and mechanical bracing are the star of the show.

Authentic, Premium Materials: Say goodbye to cheap plastic sprues. This kit relies on aircraft-grade laser-cut basswood and birch plywood, robust Britannia (white) metal castings, brass, copper, aluminum, and steel. You will bend, shape, and machine materials exactly like the pioneering engineers of early aviation.

A Mini Mechanical Marvel: The heart of this kit is the legendary 9-cylinder Oberursel UR II rotary engine. Comprising over 33 individually cast Britannia metal parts, you will assemble the carburetor, oil pump, spark plugs, and microscopic valve springs for an incredibly realistic internal layout.

Intricate Cockpit Detailing: The cockpit is reproduced in authentic, naked-eye clarity, complete with individual gauges, a tachometer, a compass, and precision-cast twin Spandau machine guns.


🧠 The Challenge is the Feature (Advanced Difficulty)

Rated at an Advanced Level, this kit is intentionally designed to test and grow your problem-solving abilities. It offers weeks of premium, immersive entertainment value. You’ll get to clean and file heavy metal engine components, precision-bend sheet metal, and route working internal rigging wires.

To guide you through every step of this rewarding project, the kit includes six sheets of blueprint-quality, full-scale plans and a comprehensive 54-page illustrated assembly manual designed by renowned engineer Dr. David Ullman.

✈️ Brief History of the Fokker Dr.I

The Fokker Dr.I Triplane was the legendary favorite aircraft of Manfred von Richthofen—the infamous "Red Baron"—who claimed his final 20 victories in it. Designed by Anthony Fokker, this iconic aircraft was notoriously difficult to master but deadly agile in the hands of an expert pilot. This structural model honors that incredible piece of engineering by showing you exactly how it was built to dominate the WWI skies.

Exactly what I needed
Size: 100 Pack
These are great for making cleanup from cooking easier. Like most disposable pans, these are a little on the flimsy side when loaded with food, but I either put them on a cookie sheet or inside another baking pan for loading into and out of the oven, and they work great that way.

Horrible quality. Manufacturer has created absolute junk.
Size: 100 Pack
I have bought these pans many times and I’ve been very happy with them. However, the most recent batch I got of 100 was shockingly inferior to what I received before they are of such poor quality that they bend like a piece of aluminum foil. they are dangerous to cook with if you pick them up. They just bend. Usually, they are packed in a carton which then is inside the Amazon box. This time, they were just in the Amazon carton and then arrived crumpled and crushed. Wherever they bought them from is a disgrace. I will never buy them again. They are a disaster and dangerous to use in your oven.

Good stuff
Size: 100 Pack
Excellent materials. As advertised-no surprises with finding stamped foil that doesn’t hold its contents. My wife uses these to bring food to my work and she is perceived as a professional chef.
