Old-timer
Sites
Just
Plain Fun!
- Kenny's
Old Time Model Airplane Magazine
My latest find. You won't be disappointed. Trust me.
Kenny has created a site that all us Webmasters can
envy.
- The Plan Page
How about a place where you can get oldtimer scale plans?
The Flying Aces Club has done it with scans of some
really good stuff. The files are zipped or full PDF
format. If I were you, I'd do what the Comet Kid has
done. Download this collection and use your CD burner
to archive them. I now can realize my dream of building
all Earl Stahl's scale designs. After unzipping and
printing the pages, it's off to Kinko's to enlarge to
the scale I want for electric flying. How about the
Fokker DVIII by Harry Shaffer? And, where are
you going to get Ying's Fuselage Model?
