Default Help, Biplane wing

Hi people, I have been looking for plans to build a Christen Eagle Biplane from scratch but have not been able to find any. Can anyone help me? I have been able to get three views but they are only about 1/48th-scale drawings. If any one knows how to import them accurately into Corel Draw or any other easily obtainable design package that I can change in scale accurately without distortion please contact me I would really appreciate the help.
I would like to build this plane in 3 sizes starting with a size to fit in with a 0.90 methanol size two stroke progressing to a 1.60 methanol two stroke and the eventually into 50% scale using a 210cc petrol.
I know nothing about airfoils, which is why I was trying to find a proven plan or someone who can help with information on how to design the wings so they will work.
