Thes folks offer a small number of scale plans from the golden age. They offer peanut scale as well as larger scale plans. In the larger scale they offer some interesting designs, and the prices for the plans are less than $10.00.
Mid and Large Scale Plans include:
Bathtub 22
1924 Dormoy racing plane, recreated as a VW powered homebuilt by Mike Kimbrel.
Dayton-Wright Racer
High-wing, kind of a skinny GB; mid-20s; first plane with a retractable LG.
Miles Mohawk
Charles Lindbergh had the Miles Co. build this plane while he was in England after the kidnapping. Very neat low wing, 2-place in-line, wheel pants, Menasco inverted (cowled) engine. Very extensive documentation comes with the plan.
Monocoupe
This is a famous racing Monocoupe - plans show both 29" and 40" wingspan versions of Johnny Livingston's plane.
Napier-Heston
Neat model of an English attempt at the 500 mph speed record prior to WWII. Lots of documentation is available for this one.
RWD-8
Neat Polish parasol trainer.
Sperry Messenger
The "cutest plane in the Army". Classic bipe, 3 cyl radial, BIG star markings.
Texas Temple
Based on a 90s replica - lots of nice engine detail. Plan comes with the Texas Temple emblems and instrument panel sticky-back decals, plus a well detailed 3 view. Color picture documentation is available.
Vulcan American Moth
Neat 1928 parasol. Comes with a nice 3 view and a good color print of a restored original Moth is available.
Of particular interest is a Peanut Scale 6-plan set (priced at $4.95), which includes:
Arrow Sport
A 1937 low wing plane, powered by a Ford V-8.
Deperdussin
Pre-WWI well known monoplane racer. This one has a rather unique construction to help represent the monocoque feature of the full scale plane.
General Western Meteor
Early 30s parasol with a Kinner 5 cyl motor - nice peanut.
Rose Parrakeet
Neat biplane that has survived through 7 decades - first as a production plane, then at least twice a revival, and finally as a homebuilt. Lots of documentation available on this one.
Ryan M1
This is the RYAN plane that flew the mail before and after NYP's famous flight. Interesting body construction.
Timm Collegiate
A record setting parasol from the mid-30s. Based on the locally restored full scale plane.
