72modeler Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 (edited) I just found this website by accident- isn't that always the way it happens? It has scale drawings, technical description, specs, and construction details for all CAC-designed aircraft. I would think this would be useful to BM'ers planning Aussie modeling projects. I hope this hasn't been posted before- if so, Mike- you can remove it.

Ed Russell Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 It's an interesting site principally about CAC aircraft rather than all Australian aircraft although it does have a fairly complete list of all Australian designed aircraft. Surprisingly, more than a dozen are available in kit form. It is run by Derek Buckmaster who recently published a very comprehensive book on the CAC Ceres.The Ceres would make a good modelling project.................... It's part of a network of sites looking at Australian aviation https://www.sages.com.au/cgi-bin/ringlink/list.pl?ringid=ausavring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have edited my original post to better reflect the topic...I was so excited when I found the site, I was too quick to slap a topic title on it and should have proofed it before posting.

dragonlanceHR Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Great link, thank you. The topic of Wirraway scale drawings is most interesting. Cheers, Vedran Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did a fairly rough interpretation with an Airfix Harvard about a decade ago, it was close enough for the former pilot of the real deal whom I gifted it to!
