You're correct. The Airmaster was pre- war, I didn't start flying until after WW II and Cessna was selling the 120, 140, and 190 models at that time.

Do a search on "Airmaster," you'll find anything that's there. Or a 190/195 plan should suffice also, there's not that much difference.

thank you mr. robison! i am not told that i am right very often. i have looked on the web under the headings you suggested and could not get any plans, or 3 views. ther were some suttel changes in the early models like flaps. the 195 was the most advanced one . this is going to be a true scale plane, so the 195 is to new for the plane i have. still hopeing some one can help with the plans that came with the kit. also documentation would be of great help. thank you rvwise

dear mr. olsen, the best plane to compare it with would be a stinson. the 135- 195 had a straight wing with no struts. the stinson had a gull wing with struts. both of course had round engines. hope this helps. rvwise
