In the past year I have scratch built many models from plans on your website. See the Goldberg Blazer photo attached [more pics 003].AndyCoutts - 24/05/2016
Please find attached more photos of the Blazer, including airborne [more pics 004-006].

This has been the last model I've built and flown at the end of 2018 [more pics 007-010]. This is the Blazer built for radio control and keeping everything in action to use as O.T. 1/2. Tonight we will take grapes as ordered by the Spanish tradition and tomorrow we will be 2019. We will continue to fly and build.

Apologies to Pajariperro for taking so long to add these pictures & the New Year's Eve greeting. We hope Pajariperro and all Outerzone readers will continue to fly and build in 2019!

No wing or elevator rib profiles shown on single sheet. Is there more than one sheet of plans?
GST - 18/05/2020
The main rib of both the wing and stab is shown. But since this is a kit plan, ie the plan arrived in the box along with all the kit parts, probably no, there was no further sheet. Kit plans often showed only the assembly, not the full formers. Anyone out there got printwood scans to add to this?

Boy, does this one bring back memories. There was a completed model hanging up in the Western Auto store, which had a few model airplane items displayed in one corner. I lusted after it every time I rode my bike downtown, about '58 or '59. It was totally out of my ability to build such a model, even if I could spring for the $3.95 price. It was a lot of money for a kid. I couldn't imagine covering the thin, flimsy wing without warps, and a hot Holland Hornet was something to dream about. Two years later, I built the Blazer's successor, a Goldberg Hi-thrust Viking, with my paper route riches, never flown after being damaged during a move. Yes I could build it now but would prefer the Viking, a larger version of the Blazer.

Hi, Here are pics of my 1/2 A Blazer which I built many years ago [012, 013]. Electric powered and RC for motor speed and DT. (No control surfaces). Flies great.

Howdy all..
A 1/2 A Blazer was my first really successful freeflight. After getting it going, I launched it from our field in Miami Springs just north of Miami International.. It hooked a boomer and was gone.. I was pretty sad because money was tight but a phone call that evening from the name, address and Ph. # on the wing with the magic word "Reward" brought it home from it's landing near the Orange Bowl stadium.. Amazing.. Fast forward 56 years and I got another on ebay.. 2 ch. RC to keep her safe !!

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.
