Quote: "Beginning in this issue with an .020 replica of the 'Aerbo', 1941 Nationals Class A winner, MODEL BUILDER will present an Old Timer model plan each month. Some models will be .020 replicas, and some will be full size (such as George Reich's 'Albatross', coming-in the next issue).
Full size plans will be available, however no building instruct-ions will be included. Phil Bernhardt, designer of .020 Aerbo replica with full size, Arden .199 powered version by his father, Otto.

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.
