Quote: "Hello, Mary & Steve, Enclosed, hopefully, are fullsize crude plans from templates traced from kit parts long ago. When I built kits in the past, I traced the parts onto light weight cardboard. The idea was to have patterns for repairs or to build another. The increasing popularity of R/C provided many C/L at reduced prices, therefore not requiring the use of my patterns. While looking for the patterns of Sterling's P-38 (oz 14542), I found these for the companion kit S-7 P-40. The decades old patterns had to be cut from the thin cardboard, traced to paper, the reason for the crudeness. The actual surviving models assisted in accuracy.
Photos attached. The O.D. is mine [pics 004, 005] and the red [main pic, 003] is Dave Talley's, my late brother in law. Ed"

ScaleType: This (oz14625) 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/Curtiss_P-40_Warhawk
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.

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.
