Sorta Sportavia

Kim that's excellent! Is there anyway to buy a set of those prints? What is the wingspan and the size of engine called for? Nice plane!

Hey Jetpack,

I'm afraid that the plan page is all I have. A friend gave me a book of plans back in the 80's which has a lot of my favorite plane kits from the 60's and 70's listed, and this one is apparently from a kit produced in Germany. It doesn't give a specific wingspan...think the engine was in the .15 size range.

I don't know if it would be possible to load it from the album, but if you wanted, I could email you the direct scan of the sheets. I thought it might be possible to enlarge the plan to Cox Sportavia size, and sort of redraw the plans if some of the lines are blurred.

Sorry I don't have any more detail than this, but let me know if you'd like a direct attachment of the plans.

That would be all I need, Kim. I would be able to print what I would need for reference dimensions and be able to get by drawing my own out on the board to build on. Just the ribs I think would be the only thing one would have to play with the scale percent when printed.

Thanks for the offer, it is appreciated. I love that plane and with it being a .15 size to start with is pefect.

Hi Jetpack I have an original set of fournier plans if you like.
I dont mind sending them so you free of charge if you still need them.

Yeah Jetpack...we ought to have you covered on this aircraft! I'll send my copies later today. They're too large a file for my dial-up service!
Later!
