Default RE: Pfalz DIII resources -- Photos, Drawings, Plans, etc.

Don,

Those plans don't look too bad if you ignore the fuse-innards.
I also thought those 'riblets' looked quite exaggerated with a more than half-chord depth/ but comparing them to the wylam drawings featured in 'scale aircraft drawings seems that's really how they were!
I suppose it all depends on how scale you want to go. For museum scale you'd probably need something on a par with replicraft plans. but the wylam drawings, perhaps in combination with winsock/Flugsport or what Pipe suggests seem like a really good place to start, esp. for a 1/6 th model.

right sorry for just barging in like this, first time in weeks I've had a look into RCU.

cheers,

Trev

Ps. zoomzooie, how's the halberstadt prototype coming along? I'm a bit incapacitated right now so I can't start mine, would be very interested in any progress you might've made!
