• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Hey Nacht,

From that book website I told you about through O-1, you can download "In Detail & Scale No. 99 PBY Catalina" and "Squadron-Signal Publications No.62 PBY Catalina in Action".

I don't if you already got those but they give good overall dimensions and more importantly, a good view inside the beast. If you can't find them, let me know and I 'll see what I can do!

Frosty, can I have that link?

Please give me the link again.
 
And those aspiring a career in aircraft modelling, get those two books "The Best of Wylam 1 & 2". GREAT (and I do mean GREAT!!!) scale drawings with measurements and sections of fuselages and wings of some well-known aircraft, engines and even bombs... GET IT!! (you can start off with the Wright flyer... :d (I would - or wait, no, I think I 'll do the Lewis gun first and turn CFS3 into an AA sim...)
 
I can help somewhat with the Polish. You can also look up DJWaglik, he is a SOH member. He can translate more technical information. Unfortunately I'm a Polish Hillbilly from the Carpathian mountains so my Polish is more dialectic and limited due to 28 years here in the states though, I speak primarily Polish with the wife and kids. Drop me a PM if you need anything.

Cheers,

John
