Title: Windsock International Plans Service No 18
Post by: lone modeller on August 27, 2020, 06:10:28 AM
Evening All

Does anyone have a copy of the International Plans Service No 18 with plans of the Siemens Schuchert DDr1?

If you do would you be kind enough to copy the plans for me as I would like to try a scratch build of one of these in 1/72 scale. I do not want the magazine, just a copy of the plans which I can use. Any help would be gratefully received.

Thank you in advance.

Stephen.

Cool project Stephen ! I have Spins model in the stash and it is a funky looking thing which really never flew well ...but still it is cool looking .

Just a reminder folks that Windsock plans are copyright to Ray Rimell and Albatros Publications.

Ray is a member of the Forum and a very approachable person who I'm sure would appreciate anyone wishing to copy plans from his titles to get permission from him before doing anything.

My apologies if it appeared that I was trying to avoid copyright - please be assured that I was not.

I have now found some plans on the net: my first attempt only produced some photos of the actual machine. A later search showed lots of photos of models by Spin (1/48! and Formaplane (1/72) both of which seem to have been released when I was out of modelling. I do not know why my first attempt drew so little information - perhaps my search engine woke up on the second attempt, or realised that this was not a joke! (If you look up the aircraft you will better understand the last statement).
