    The present paper deals with the analysis of a numerical method for linear scalar fractional differential equations of arbitrary order. To discretize fractional derivatives a linear combination of convolution weights is used. Moreover, a convergence theorem for the proposed numerical scheme is presented. Finally, some explicit computations including the well known Bagley Torvik equation modelling the motion of a rigid plate immersed in a Newtonian fluid are presented.
