Hi

So I was looking through plans on ebay and came across these:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/P-38-Lightni...item4ad200108c

Is it me or do they look like a Ziroli copy, they have the same specifications and everything. What I want to know has anyone bought these if so could you tell me about them and if they are a copy, I don't want to be scamming Mr Ziroli.

Thanks,

Ben

I bought the CD just to see wha was on it. The P38 plans along with alot of others are Ziroli plans.

Uncle Willy on ebay wasn't the first to ignore copyrights or even common decency and respect to the original designers or publishers and I'm sure he won't be the last.

Another thing to be aware of, if you buy that CD expecting to get plans for cheap, it doesnt really happen unless you own a plotter to print them yourselves. Whenever i buy plans, i always have them scanned and copied for CAD use and parts templates. Out of curiousity, the Ziroli P38 plans would of been $85+ tax to have printed at the local printing shop. Its cheaper to buy the plans from Ziroli.

The reason for me buying the Cd was to verify scale outlines of a few models on there to see if they matched my 3-views closely enough to not warrant an entire redesign of the model. Unfortunately for me, that was more often Not the case
