Default Plans Copiers on Ebay

Wormy:

I had not thought it through to your point, but yes, it is implied that only one airplane will be built from each set of plans sold, and that means the buyer of your plans set would have to pay you an additional royalty for each plane after the first.

Scalebldr:

The older plans were published with the understanding that any number of planes could be built from them, so your copying of that example should be legal. But when you send acopy of the article.......

That is unlike what you see now.

For example, every partial plan currently published in RCM has a big overlay stating the plan is copyrighted. And what they publish is not a complete plan set.

Plans, plans, who owns the plans?
. Do they belong to RCM, or are they MAN's?

Bill.
