User comments
The article included should be paired with the slightly different plan that appeared in Model Builder Magazine.https://plans.modelaircraft.org/product/turner-special-3/
Image #3 is Jim Reynolds' built from that plan. It differs slightly in construction and does not have the reflexed TE.

Agreed. Does anyone have a good clean scan of the MB plan (in Jun 1985, Kelso Barnett)? With that, we can split this into two separate listings.

I have the MB plan and a more detailed version of this one.

Just adding a note here for clarity. This listing has now been split, into the MAN plan and the MB plan, thanks to TomRyan. Accordingly the MB article as mentioned above has now moved to Turner Special (oz15172)

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.
