Malc2 Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 Hi Mechanic, A detailed 3 view with dimensions appears in Flight magazine 26 April 1928 page 281. These magazines were available here:- https://www.flightglobal.com/flight-international/flight-magazine-archive Sadly they have been taken down temporarily............. M.

John Aero Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 I have sent the dimensioned drawings I mentioned to Mechanic. I'm not sure what's happening to the Flight Archive as it's been down for some time. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mechanic Posted June 24, 2020 Author Share Posted June 24, 2020 Thank you all very much! The data is still there, you need to digest it, and then get to work. I will do it in 48 scale for the Japanese type 89 and Supermarine Southampton. The work will be difficult....Now I know why my wife calls me a lunatic…( 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
