The "Utopia" ?
 

Anybody have a copy of the plans for George Albright's "Utopia" .60-size pattern ship (Model Airplane News, March 1973) ? Had a set, once, but foolishly gave them away [:o] )
Has anyone tried building one of these from the plans?

RE: The "Utopia" ?
 

I have them. But, the text is illegible. The outlines and parts patterns are good enough to scratch build from. PM me your email address.

RE: The "Utopia" ?
 

Thanks for the help. Do you know a firm dimension on the drawing - i.e. the wingspan - so that I can scale the file to the correct size? I'm using a CAD tool (Microstation) that will let me scale a raster file to any size I want it to be.

RE: The "Utopia" ?
 

The title box says 63 1/2" span which is what I scaled the plans to. The file I sent is full-size and should print out to the correct dimensions.
