Ok boys and girls. Every now and again you end up in the right place at the right time. I wasn't really out looking for another airplane / project but sometimes they just flop in your lap. So here's the next project to get going when the ASIIS is done. It's a derivative of the Russian interavia I-1L. But like all things Russian there were several makes of the same aircraft and this is some Alfa thing. Anyways, it's great, can't read any of the placards on the panel and there is some really cool engineering in this thing. It also came with a second wind damaged fuselage for spare parts. Soooooo although not a biplane I figure it's cool enough that you guys may like to see what I do to it.
