Bucker/CASA 131 Jungmann Plans/Drawings/Dimensons

Hi all,

 

I'm trying to work out the differences between the various Bucker/CASA 131 variants. I have Gary Allens plans as well as a couple of others and the profile publication (the trouble is, it isn't clear whether these dimensions include the spinner).

 

I'm aware there are/were technical drawings with dimensions available (see below), but I can't find any high res versions

EDIT: I've actually just found a pdf of the airframe manual online, so that's another great help. It's still be nice to find some high resolution scans, particularly of any original drawings or modern CAD.

 

Any help would be much appreciated!

Main differences are the engines, with the Casa 131 having a much heavier ENMA Tigre IV, which admittedly does significantly pep up the performance but puts the CG forward of where it really ought to be and upsets the handling to some degree. (It's still better than most, though).

Suggest you check out this site.

There’s a restored and flying Jungmann very near to you Wellsprop at Henstridge airfield (ex-wartime HMS Dipper). I can give you the contact number of the owner if you wish, but I also have many photos that I took when I was last there.
