As I read on the forum, many posts ask about free plans. These are some links I collected where you can find nice free plans (some are the same), most will require a CAD viewer.
If you know some other sites with free plans, please add!!!!

I've taken the liberty to add a bit to the title so that it better describes what this thread is about.

And I've also stickied it as this is one of the most common topics around here. So feel free to add good links here and report problems with them as they may arise.

Status: offline 		It still amazes me that my designs are still on the net! I've checked the links above and all are safe to visit and download from as they have complied with copyright and left the title box intact and given credit to each of the designer of these designs if known. I've also added several updates to my designs ( StarCad ) on my web site Arizona Modeler Magazine in the Downloads Section. More updated and files are coming as time permits. Guy Fuller - StarCad

Status: online 		Well. I learned in important lesson tonight. If you delete a post it also deletes all the posts that replied to THAT post. So it looks like I lost a few of the posts with plan links in my efforts to tidy up this thread. If you notice that a post with links to plans that you put here is missing please repost. Sorry.

The intent of my clean up was to tidy up the thread so folks can find links to plans quickly. The idea is that this thread should be a resource rather than an open discussion thread as per normal.

If you have a request for a specific plan or some other question please post it as a New Post. Your question will get more exposure that way and we won't clutter up this resource thread. If the question is about one of the plan sites or to report a broken link then feel free to post here since it obviously is related to the information here.

Also Lightfoot brought up a good point. If you find links to shop jigs or field boxes that are meant for model airplane use feel free to post those too.

________________________________________________________
Thought I'd pass this along just found some Cad aircraft plans...am guessing and will say there are several hundred. Other goodies like three views for free... along with AutoDesk VoLo full version viewer and a Raster to Vector converter all this is free in their Download section..

Some blue prints of many aircraft (these are for sale though..but did manage a couple of download jpegs of them..

As am new to Cad I don't know if they are suitable to use..but the electrics should have a good time there.
