Quote from KK ad: "These kits build up into the finest and most accurate scale models available today. They look and fly just like the real thing! Super Scale Kit Features: Authentic plans prepared from manufacturers' own works drawings. Lavishly illustrated leaflets ...crashproof one-piece wings, held by internal bands. Detachable tail surfaces and wing struts."
Update 31/05/2013: Added the printwood scans for this plan, thanks to vintage1.

ScaleType: This (oz88) 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/Cessna_170
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.
Do you have a photo you'd like to submit for this page? Then email admin@outerzone.co.uk

Hi Steve, Attached is a photo of my Cessna 170 by Keil Kraft, plan ID 88. Built in the early 1970's, powered by a DC Merlin 0.75cc mounted sidewinder which was the only change from the kit. It was my first successful flying scale model with which I had many great day's flying. Yes I know I should have cut the grass before taking the photo! Regards,BryanLea - 08/08/2014

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.
