Thruxton Jackaroo drawings?

[Iain Ogilvie]

Hi all,

 

Don't suppose anyone's seen any 3-view drawings out there for the Thruxton Jackaroo have they?

 

An initial Google draws a blank - except for a fuselage side view.

 

Asking for a friend...

Warpaint 101 DH82 Tiger Moth has a 1/48 profile portside only.

This therefore shows the increase in length of 8 inches, and not the increase in width of 12.5 inches.

Thanks Matt.

There is a MAP set of plans which were included in an old Scale models article which I have found buried in my external harddrive. If you forward an email address to me I will send the file to you. MODeller

This came  up before. The article was in the April 1975 edition of Scale Models magazine. I actually remember getting that magazine. If @MODellerhadn't made his offer. You might have been able to acquire a copy of the original from a well known auction site.

Received!

 

Brilliant - can't thank you enough - that's exactly what I was looking for. 

 

I have a 'spare' ICM Tiger Moth in 1:32 that may end up becoming a Jackaroo...

As one who as a teenager in the 1960s had his first flight in a Jackaroo from the sands of Morecambe Bay I would like to be able to add drawings to my personal files.  Can you help, please?

[MODeller]

Certainly just forward your email address and I will fire them off!

Many thanks.  Please email to [email protected].

DFC, just a word of caution for the future - better to PM your private email addy, or it isn't private anymore.

 

Paul.

Thanks, Paul, for the reminder.  Noted.

I remember doing a set of drawings for the Jackaroo back in the 1960s with measurements taken off a real one in the Airwork hangar at Scone Airport. I took some b/w photos and slides at the time, My intention was to convert Airfix's old 1/72 Tiger Moth, but my measuring and photography proved the kit was so awful it couldn't even be built into a good Tiger Moth.

I have just bought a couple of Tiger Moths in Lldl and one I had already intended to convert to a Jackeroo, so the reason for this begging letter is, could one or other nice chaps on here send me a copy of the drawing mentioned herein please, petty please?

PM your email address and I will forward it on.
