see Wikipedia | search Outerzone
ScaleType: This (oz144) 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/Fokker_D.VII
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.

It has been said that Ernst Udet would approach his aerial opponent from beneath, literally hanging his Fokker on its propeller while firing vertically into the underside of the enemy aircraft. Such was the performance of the incomparable Fokker DVII. The mark of a great fighter aircraft was not that an expert (Udet) could succeed with it, but that it could turn even an average flyer into a good combat pilot.This is a revisiting [main pic, 003-006] of the first flying model that I attempted to create, many decades ago (much more than half a century). Suffice it to say that I knew nothing at all about stick and tissue modeling. In fact, I had no idea what a Fokker DVII was even supposed to look like, except for the box art. The end result was an unmitigated disaster, except for the fact that my interest was piqued. In that jumble of sticks I could actually see what looked like the picture on the box! I attempted to cover it in some sort of green paper which proceeded to bleed all over the place…and that was the end of the beginning…to paraphrase Winston Churchill.
Comet Models 1936 Fokker DVII (oz144) will always be my introduction to this wonderful hobby.
Much thanks and appreciation to Steve and Mary at OuterZone. If only I'd have had such a resource as you've provided when I was a young boy! Thank you again!

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.
