RAF Museum Sopwith Dolphin Mk.I C3988 Press Launch

Here are some photos from yesterday's Press launch of the RAF Museum's recently completed Sopwith Dolphin Mk.1 C3988.

It's a real beauty that you really need to see for yourselves rather than relying on photos. The attention to detail and standard of finish is wonderful.
