Messerschmitt Bf110 (oz1927)
About this Plan
Me110 Night Fighter. Scale control line twin night fighter, for two .15-.19 engines. July 1980 MAN.
Quote: "A standoff-scale control line model of a unique and interesting aircraft. The full-size Messerschmitt Bf110 has so captured my inieresi thai this model is the third Bf110 I have built, in varying sizes, and all have been very interesting and successful projects. The Messerschmitt Bf110 was one of the first attempts to develop a true strategic fighter with long range and heavy fire power Designed originally to clear the sky of enemy fighters, the Zerstorer, or 'destroyer' failed in its task during the Battle of Britain, but went on to become the most successful night-fighter in the world, with more nocturnal victories than any other airplane. The twin-engined, two-seater Messerschmitt Bf110 became a destroyer of bombers instead of fighters.
Our model is a 3/4in standoff scale replica of one of the Messerschmitts flown by famous German night-fighter ace Werner Streib when he led Gruppe 1 of Nachtjagdgeschwader No.1 in 1941. Engines from .15 to .I9cu in displacement can be used; if funds are short and you have two similar but not identical engines, it is possible to fly the model with a .15 and a .19. Mount the larger or more powerful engine in the inboard nacelle and throttle the engines to equalize power if necessary. The prototype model is powered with two Fox .15 engines.
Our model is not difficult to build; no complex structure or planking is necessary, and the cockpit canopy can be made from a flat sheet of plastic in one piece! Because it is impossible to enclose the engine cylinders, we elected to use horizontally mounted engines to make the powerplants as obscure as possible in profile..."

ScaleType: This (oz1927) 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_110
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.
