Guys,
If you download plans, how do you experienced bldrs get them translated to the correct size? Take them to kinkos to be printed?

Also, if I have built several planes, is the jump to scratching from plans that large. I am wanting to build a largish Mustang in a racing sceme but, want to do it in smaller bites.

I know, same old story but can you help?

If this is your first plan build, I STRONGLY recommend getting plans from a reputable and popular designer. Reason? Mistakes are minimized and internet resources will be high.

Ziroli has perhaps one of the best following out there...

Now you said largish... I suppose thats quite relative...

Ziroli has plans for a 98" mustang... you can find them here....

You can have a cad company print them too, but make sure they have all the ribs and formers on them if it is your first one. If not and you have to come up with all the formers, it will be a problem.
