Member Jason Fair (howlinggriffon) has generously donated a set of 1/4 scale (25%) Lockheed P-38 "Lighting" plans drawn by long time scratch builders Fred Nielsen and Ralph Davey. These plans give you everything you need (including plans for the retracts) to start this massive project. They are 100% scans of the original hand drawn plans and in pdf format for printing convenience and only available to RCSB Site Supporters!

If you are already a RCSB Site Supporter then click the link below to download the plans:

If you are not a Site Supporter you can learn about the benefits of becoming one by clicking on the link below:

My pleasure. I just wanted to get these out to people that I knew would enjoy it. This bird is out of my league but I would love to see someone take it on! Thank you Mike for letting me share it.

Thanks for the contribution jason!  This is definitely one of those projects where you need a few people for one airplane...  One I will definitely have to work on after i get my current stack of projects done and a CNC router.. No way I would want to cut that many parts out by hand!

I know what you mean. Mike had to break the boom former sheet into multiple pages. The original drawing is over 12' long!! I'm trying to get hold of some 1/8 PBY plans from the same gentleman. Might be able to keep you guys busy for a few decades

Unfortuantely no. There is one inside the site supporter area that is not accessable to basic members. This one is the announcement for those that don't subscribe to this forum and to encourage basic members to become site supporters.
