Comet clipper ...not at all a correction, but there appears no pattern for the windshield on the plan. Difficult to draw one and means of gluing. GREAT R/C O/T design.anon - 25/04/2017
The ribs and the formers are for the Mk 2 Clipper, not for the plan shown which is the Mk1 Clipper.

I reduced mine to 50", covered in silk and powered it with a Junior Brown Junior 0.19 spark ignition engine for free flight. Goes best in right hand circles and looks great in the air with that elliptical wing form.

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.
