ScaleType: This (oz12945) is a scale plan. Where possible we link scale plans to Wikipedia, using a text string called ScaleType.
If we got this right, you now have a couple of direct links (above) to 1. see the Wikipedia page, and 2. search Oz for more plans of this type. If we didn't, then see below.
Notes:
ScaleType is formed from the last part of the Wikipedia page address, which here is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Praga_E.114
Wikipedia page addresses may well change over time.
For more obscure types, there currently will be no Wiki page found. We tag these cases as ScaleType = NotFound. These will change over time.
Corrections? Use the correction form to tell us the new/better ScaleType link we should be using. Thanks.

I am intrigued as to how this could have been printed, built and flown under the Nazi Occupation, it is honestly a mystery to me.The restoration work is first class, it does full justice to the original draughtsman, Mr, Moucka and the designer (illegible). For this drawing, like every one in the time, all text had to be written in by hand and I don't think there would be many lettering templates at the time yet, every single dot and letter had to be written in by hand in ink and this gentleman did have a very well trained hand, helped by a variety of appropriate nibs. This is terrific and very professional work. Not uncommon in those times and for many years before and after, but whatever the case very much up to standards.
Absolutely nothing like this is taught nowadays and in my case it was a complete waste of time, as my calligraphy looks like seagull tracks in the wet sand :-))
As a final note, this http://historickemodely.cz/ blog is worth going into my Favourites, even if I don't quite see what can I do with Coloured Fleece, sheep must be quite fashionable over there 8-)

Notes
* Credit field
The Credit field in the Outerzone database is designed to recognise and credit the hard work done in scanning and digitally cleaning these vintage and old timer model aircraft plans to get them into a usable format. Currently, it is also used to credit people simply for uploading the plan to a forum on the internet. Which is not quite the same thing. This will change soon. Probably.
Scaling
This model plan (like all plans on Outerzone) is supposedly scaled correctly and supposedly will print out nicely at the right size. But that doesn't always happen. If you are about to start building a model plane using this free plan, you are strongly advised to check the scaling very, very carefully before cutting any balsa wood.
