I was mistaken, they are email attatchments to take to your local printer.

There's no description whatsoever there, other than 94" span. I would assume you are correct also, that they send you an email and expect to make 3 bucks. This is about as bad as US Wings, that showed my scale Seabee as being the result of a cartoon scale plan. There are far too many free plans out there, than to spend one red cent on schemes like this. 200% scale should give you 96" span from this free plan for example, which in theory will still generally use standard wood sizes when enlarged or reduced by a factor of 2.

Either that or they are getting them from here,  Outerzone.co.uk, Hippocket, or RCGroups when someone uploads them.

Made the mistake of buying some P-61 plans from this seller and they were just poor copies of Ziroli plans. I think he uses more than one name as theres other ebay plans sellers that use the same broken english and offer the same plans. Not sure how guys like this get away with ripping off other's work. ebay should shut this and the other guys down.

"Great Plans" is selling copies from RCM&E, RCM plans etc. Some of his plans are almost as much as the originals. He has a BAe Hawk by Paul Grey for $19.00, I can get the originals from www.modelflying.co.uk. at the same cost.  Buyer beware.

Don't buy any RCM plans from/for Dave Andersen designs. Dave offers them up for free at www.mnbigbirds.com

Now that's classy!
