Default Gruman Goose 3 views

Hello,

I want to build a 1/6 Goose but the 3 view I have is short
in the length of the fuse. Anyone have a correct 3 view
or know of a source for a good 3 view of the Goose?

Thanks.

Try Grummans historical department. They sent me so much info on the F4F that it took me 2 days to go through all of it. Can't remember the address, but if you email them, I'm sure they will get back to you with the address.

The place I contacted was in NY. As I remember the items came from NY as well.

That's the place. Send them a nice snail mail about what you are trying to do and they will send all kinds of nice info. Don't forget to ask for the retract page out of the erection manual. It comes in real handy!

Also try Bobs Aircraft Documentation

www.bobsairdoc.com

Bob Banka has countless thousands of 3-views, he should have something and even pictures....

I will check my files, I may have one. I'm not sure how detailed it is, but I'll let you make the determination if it's useful or not. I'll post it as soon as I can!

This is all I found. I hope it's useful. It's a large file, but I do have a higher resolution version if you want it, just let me know!
