    Hi,

    I am researching the Morane-Saulnier M,S-230~315 parasol to replicate for FAI F4C. Recent M.S engineered drawings from a French museum have enabled me to design 90% of the requirements with only one (1) exception...Fuselage Former/Cross sections along a common datum line.

    You have obviously either CAD drawn this airframe or acquired the same. I am contacting you to request fuselage former/cross section image files to enable design of a fuselage to accompany the balance of my design process. Is this possible? my email address is [email protected] .Houston R/C

     

    If you do not have the fuselage former files is it possible to assist by directing me to where they may be downloaded?

    Thanking you in advance!

These H81A had four wing guns and two fuselage gun as shown the official pictures of french H81A number 1 and pics of AH 762 external difference H81A* vs A2 - rear glass window: 1 hole for fuel filler on H81A and 2 holes on A2 (access fuel and oil filler cap) - oil tank, on each fuselage side at the rear of rear window frame there were trapezoidal access door on H81A(filler cap under the port door). under the rear window glass on H81A2 * suffix 1 was added later, H81A or A1 is same
