Recently, while searching for photos of antique aircraft, I came across a Web site devoted to models of them. Because I know there are several remote control (RC) flyers in EAA Chapter 320, I looked a bit deeper. This Web site provides access to quite a number of plans, all of which are free and downloadable. Most seem to be from a gentleman named William Schwartz.
Not only are there plans, but there are also drawings of model engines old and new, links, how-to's, three-view sketches, airfoil generators, and more. This is a resource that is well worth exploring. At least one of the how-to tips would work every bit as well for full-size aircraft as for model airplanes.
Editor's Note: CR4 would like to thank Ron Darner for sharing this story. A longtime CR4er, Ron is also the newsletter editor for Chapter 320 (Watertown, Wisconsin) of the Experimental Aircraft Organization (EAA).
