Chance Vought V-143
Capt. Pedashenko just sent in his latest. This time its the rare Chance-Vought V-143, a pre WWII design that has some of those Corsair lines. Looks like it would make an outstanding scale combat fighter. Download both sheets of plans here. They are TIF images, so you’ll need a graphics viewer to view and/or print them.
Spitfire Mk VIIIOur good friend Alex Pedashenko has just posted some nice plans for the Spitfire Mark VIII, originally designed for Speed 400 electric – but Alex has added a suitable scale bar so that the drawings could be scaled to 1/12th scale. It looks to be a fairly simple design, with excellent scale lines. Have a look, and thanks Alex!

Sukhoi-6/7

Stormovik IL-2
Tom Carr has just sent in a great GIF file of his rendering of the Stormovik IL-2. It has a 45.5″ wingspan and should fly nicely with a .20 or .25. Tom even did his homework and included some very nice documentation in Word format, which can be downloaded here. Tom, keep up the great work! ps: Tom wanted to add that the shear webs should be 1/16″ sheet, which was not printed on the plans.!
Hawker Hurricane
Tom Carr recently sent in these nice Hurricane plans in a GIF file. Tom notes: “The concept is 3/16″ ply firewall (F3), 1/8×1/4 stringers, thin ply for all other fuse formers, and 3/32″ fuse sheeting. Though not identified on the plans, ( I’ll have to add in the near future), the fuse could use some top and bottom stringers, especially in the aft section and the cowl area. The tail is set for stick building to lower aft weight, this baby’s got a long moment-arm to the rear feathers. The wing is laid out for 3/32″ ribs, 1/8×1/4 spars, 3/16 TE doubler, 5/16×1.25 TE and 1/4×1/2 LE. Wing sheeting would be well served at 1/16, LE to spars, 1″ wide TE sheeting with full sheeting from W3 to W3. The computer is telling me about 5/16” washout from W3 to W6 will make it a kitten to land (low-speed stability) yet won’t hamper the “get off my 6 maneuvers”. We hope to have a DXF file posted soon. Tom also included a nice parts list. Thanks, Tom!
