Son of Sharky (oz16771)
About this Plan
Son of Sharky. Sinple chuck glider model. Biplane layout. Wingspan 12 in.
Quote: "12 in span biplane glider for ages 8 to 80. Son of Sharky, by B Mallett. Here's a simple chuck-glider with a difference - a biplane! Add Plasticine as nose weight to trim the finished model for a long, smooth, flat glide and introduce turn (if required - it will most probably turn naturally due to slight asymmetry during construction) by adding a small trim tab to rear of fin."
Direct submission to Outerzone.
Quote: "G'day Steve and Mary. I was scanning some Aeromodeller Magazines (for Brian at Sceptreflight) and came across some nice little chuck gliders that can be printed to a single A4 sheet.
Sceptreflight is just like Outerzone, but for model engines, see: https://sceptreflight.com/Model%20Engine%20Tests/Index.html
Keep safe and well and best of luck with sorting out the clown.
Regards, Danny"

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.
