Messerschmitt Bf 109E (oz16754)
About this Plan
Messerschmitt Bf 109E. Free flight scale model German WWII fighter. Wingspan 24-3/8 in.
Direct submission to Outerzone.
Quote: "Here is one I ran across deep in the Dick Gleason files, a nice rubber scale Bf109. Published in the Crosswinds Quarterly 1980. Cracked rib construction, it spans 24-3/8" very traditional built up structure... Dave."
Update 18/5/2026: Added page 20 from Crosswinds #57, shows the missing fuselage formers, thanks to DA.

Did we get something wrong with these details about this plan (especially the datafile)?
That happens sometimes. You can help us fix it.

ScaleType: This (oz16754) 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/Messerschmitt_Bf_109
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.

Hi... Beautiful. But it seems the formers are not complete. Looking for the last tail formers.Regards.

The plan (including the rear formers) is in Crosswinds newsletter #57. Check the scaling to ensure matchup with the plan hosted here on OZ.

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.
