Well the research is conflicting!
Apparently according to the comic strips and movies, (there were movies?)Snoopy never shot down the Red Baron. The Baron however shot Snoopy down "many" times.
The only reference to Snoopy ever shooting him down is in the song and even that can be placed in doubt by the unconfirmed claim that "Snoopy fired once, and he fired twice and that Bloody Red Baron went spinnin' out of sight". This would not even rate as an unconfirmed kill even by WW1 standards.
So this leaves the question did Snoopy ever actually even have one much less several nemeses?

The best I can see is that Snoopy claims to be a WW1 ace but does not have a single confirmed kill to his record.

On the other hand it has never been completely confirmed exactly who shot down the Red Baron sooooo

The age discrepancy really tells it all.
Be more likely that his dog house would be a Phantom in Vietnam!

Wasn't he hit by AA while chasing some other plane down?

Ah I didn't see this thread before. I finished building mine a few weeks ago. First time building a model since maybe late 90's. "Do a good job making a 1/24 model" has been on my to do list since 2005, finally crossed off.

Been disputed all this time. Aussies claim shot down by their AA. RAF says one of their planes shot him down. Although modern studies side on the AA side they are not positive.

Ah whoops. Also noticed I hadn't fixed the wheels yet when I took these pics.. there were a couple that it took a while to grow the cojones to push them all the way on.

[fredzy]

Yeah guess they want to keep the booster/master cylinder right by the pedals

The RHD cars have always been flipped. For exactly the reason Fred stated.
