Default Plans WTB

I'm looking for a used or unused set of plans for a Midget Mustang or a Vans
RV-3. Someone has them, may as well sell them.

Let me know.

Thanks

Mike

You mean, like someone who decided not to build? Otherwise, someone who
already built one, and sold the plans to you would be violating copyright,
of one plane per plan. You wouldn't want to do that, would you?

Ya I'm looking for plans only. Used or not doesn't matter. I'm not going
to build it. I know that the plans are one set per serial number.

Thanks for the reply Richard. I don't know how the designers work it as far
as copyright goes. Maybe the resale of plans is prohibited for what ever
reason. I don't know. I am not going to build. What I want them for is
for reference. I am enrolled in College for an AutoCad course. When I'm
done I would like to have a detailed 3D Model of an aircraft with a cutaway
section. It will be great for a portfolio I think. With any luck a future
employer will be into aviation

There are people out there that collect plans. Some as references for
some other kind of plane they're going to build - grabbing good ideas
anywhere they're found - and some just because they like airplane
plans. For them, it wouldn't matter if a plane had been built from
the plans or not.

Don't know if that's what Mike's about or not, just observin'.

You should send out a few emails with offers to pay for printing and
shipping to a few companies. You could likely get them for free or close.
Companies often help students with these kinds of projects. Heck, they may
like to get your results if their model has never been put into Autocad.

Can't hurt to ask

Hi Mike

Try here; http://groups.yahoo.com/group/trade_airplane_plans/

Small group but it only started a couple months ago. I'm hoping someone
shows up who knows where to find plans for a Currie Wot biplane. Others
want to use it as a place to exchange details like wing or landing gear
design rather than exchange full sets of plans.

I'm also looking for a wing folding mechanism that might be adaptable to
a Woody's Pusher. Anyone with Sonerai 2 plans out there?

In the hard to find catagory, I've got a set of Herb Rayner's Curtis
Pusher replica plans for a design that looks a lot like this;

My feeling is that once you've built a plane, you'll want to keep the
plans for maintenance/repairs/mods, etc.

If there was some specific page you wanted full-size, asking a builder
to copy that page for you would perhaps be more successful than asking
to buy all the plans.

If you want a full set of A3 size RV plans, you could buy them off Vans
Aircraft for IIRC $50 -- they're included in the back of the manual.
