NotFound | help
This is a scale plan, but ScaleType is set as NotFound.
This happens when we can't find a relevant Wikipedia page to link to. Usually because the type in question is uncommon.
Corrections? Use the correction form to tell us the new ScaleType link we should be using. Thanks.

User comments
I am attaching some pictures of my "Mystery Ship" by Frank Haines [more pics 004-006]. I got the plans from your site. I increase the size to a W.S. of 16.5 inches, and it is 15 inches long. Weight came without covering to 15.4 gr, and after covering it with Japanese tissue the total weight was 20.3 gr (w/o motor). I reinforce the wing structure to increase the resistance to torsion and flexibility. All the construction was done using 1/16 balsa and probably will try 2-4 strands of 1/8 rubber for power. Now we must wait until the snow melts away to try some flying tests outdoors. Here in Alberta, Canada, it is still snowing, windy and minus 10 Celsius, but we have hopes that the weather will improve soon.JavierSarango - 27/03/2018

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.
