Direct submission to Outerzone.

Quote: "Hi, After many years, a friend returned a plan to me of a very nice trainer from Pilot. I had the plan scanned and cleaned it in Photoshop. Attached for Outerzone.

In the eighties there were some Forsters flying at my club. They looked good and performed very well as trainer. It's nice the Forster is somewhat bigger than the average trainer. I had mine modified to a taildragger, with the centre of the main wheels positioned at the wing's leading edge.

You're welcome, Henri "

Maybe somebody has a scan of the backside with the build photos and text? Then this would be complete and even better. :)

A scan of what? Would you have anyone in mind? :)

All Pilot plans have instructions and build photo's on the other side of the plan, that is what is missing for now.

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.
