What is the Australia airworthy WW1 replica population at the moment?
Andrew's DR1. Bruce's Pup. RAAF Museum Pup. RAAF Museum Boxkite.
Any others?
Nick Caudwell's Snipe is due to fly shortly, and what a welcome addition that will be. The TAVAS E.III is getting the first CAMS rotary, so that will probably be the first of Achim's planes to fly.
What happened to the Albatros D.V that was nearly complete two years ago?

It looks like the airworthy population consists of:
Fokker DR-1 - Andrew Carter Sopwith Pup - Bert Filippi (Le Rhone rotary - flown regularly - the only airworthy rotary in Oz?) Sopwith Pup - sister ship to the RAAF Museum pup - flew at Tyabb Airshow last month Sopwith Pup - RAAF Museum Bristol Boxkite - RAAF Museum Nieuport 17 - Caboolture Warplane Museum
Are there any others?

Think you're right with all that Brett. Some detail - the RAAFM Pup is VH-PSP, Dave Marshall's Pup is VH-SOR, both Transavia replicas, both AS Genet Major powered. Boxkite is VH-XKT, 110 hp Rotec radial.
