About this Plan

P-40 Warhawk. Control line scale model American WWIII fighter.

Quote: "Realistic Scale Job for 1 - 1.5 cc Engines. P-40 Warhawk, Designed by R Taccini.

THIS is another MODEL AIRCRAFT plan that really requires no explanation on the building aspect. It is perfectly straightforward and in fact the colouring of the completed model is the stage to take extra care if you want to achieve results comparable to the model Warhawk shown in our heading illustration.

We believe that one or two large pictures convey far more than just words, and the two full size machines shown here should be studied when deciding on how much extra detail to add to your model. One photo, that on the right, shows a slight variation of the sharks' teeth design that seemed a 'natural' for Warhawks; just discernable beneath the wing of this machine is the insignia of the Chinese Nationalist Air Force. Photo below is of a US Army Air Force Warhawk of the 1942 period."

Update 26/09/2018: Replaced this plan with a clearer copy, thanks to DBHL, theshadow.

    ScaleType: This (oz355) 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.
