Hi guys I got a book out of the library all about Bombers. It has around 18 cutaway drawings of bombers from ww1 to early 80s

There pretty damn cool and have lots of usefull info like amount of gas and where the tanks are. well ya know all kinds of stuff.

I scanned them at a friends house and now i'm pasting them back together. There about 2 times as big as in the book.

Most should be posted to a simple web site later tonight.

Snake how many is alot?
And how big are they?

Does anyone know the copyright laws?

I am thinking of making a site of just cutaway drawings of aircraft. Can i just list the place i got it from or what?

I guess i'm supposed to ask for permission?

Oh yeah Snake if you have one of any P40s Heck any info on P40s you have would be great.

I would say if your looking for pics to do right now maybe try and do any of the planes already in the game for now hehe lots i know but if ya got the time it could help people refine them.

Spanks, you should find a copyright notice in one of the pages of that book you got out, if not I guess you take your chances.

Now and then, the FlyPast magazine, which I buy regurarely, includes aircraft portfolios, with great curaways. I copy them in my fathers office, then glue them on a special cardboard, and frame 'em.
Also, I got some great posters at the RAF museum at Hendon for only £0.5.

Hi Spanky,
I am not sure how much. I think about 1000, that includes every aircraft they have.
Its a weekly subscription thing and its sort of stopped for a while.
I have the cuaway of the P-47D. I'll post it when I scan it in. (about an hour or so)
It says WEAL on the arse of it like the B-24.
I'll post it in a new topic because this one takes ages to load and goes out to the right.

Do you want me to mail them to you?

Snake

Ok, I scanned in the images but I can't patch them together. Who wants me to send them to you? One is canned super fine about 1.3 MB the other is normal and 230K. On the super fine one you can zoom right in and look at the nuts and bolts of the engine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Spanky, do you want me to mail them to you?

Snake. Yeah just try and scan them really straight i can paste them together. Its actually kinda fun.

Yep send them to vergesc@hotmail.com

JPG is cool but don't use much compression at all (i used 15%)

If ya have to send it BMP thats cool too.

I don't want to lose any visual quality.

This is too cool. I really think these suckers are a great help to builders. Not to mention they look so damn cool

Did you send to vergesc@hotmail.com?

If that still doesn't work try and conntact me on icq. I already sent a request to you. I guess you don't have your icq turned on.

Or you can send to verge@thot.net I don't use that one much but it is my isp account email addy.

I only check it every month or so tell me if you use it.

Ok,
I sent it to the thot.net address.
The other one got returned.
I don't know if they'll get there though.
I don't have the Dauntless yet because the company has stopped sending me issues a while back. If I get it I'll scan it and send it.

Snake.. I got them and they look great but it seems you cut the edge off them when you scanned.

If its too big slide it over so you cut off the edge thats been hole punched.

Its missing a about 1/4 to 1/2 and inch.
and it cuts off a bit of #13 i know you can still see it but there might be a whole # missing and it looks wacky without that section.

Any other fighters you want to do send them over. I have lots of bombers so fighters would be cool. do axis once cause i think i can get some of the allies. out of books at my library

Ok I'll scan them tomorrow. Its 11.35pm here and I have school tomorrow.
The pics are spread over two A4 sheet sized paper. Its folded in the middle so that why it is missing some.
Which axis aircraft? Zero, Me-110, Me-109, Ju-88.

Spanky here...

K when you scan then get about a 1/4" of that fold so i can be sure none is missing

the zero would be great. If you feel like doing more then more would be great

I already have the 88 so no need for that.

like i said man any you feel like doing is great

If you feel like going crazy one night and doing a gaggle. do it and send them over.

It only took me about 2 hours to scan those 18 i have on my site.

then i just had to paste them together and post them.

Just make sure you overlap the middle so its all there. If you have to do it in 3 parts (as long as your cool with that) then thats fine. doesn't bug me.

Thanks alot man i'm sure the boys are going to be thanking you just as much as me. Do yo want a mention on the page? or would you rather stay anonymous? Are u on the OPP mailing list?

Hi,
Spanky I sent you the "missing link." I'll
scan in the Zero tomorrow. Do you want
nice big artistic views of the aircraft,
they are 3 sheets compard to 2 for the
cutaways, ie 5 parts. I'm not on the OPP
mailing list, what is that? It would be
cool if you pur my name on your site. I
can't do any OPP stuff and I am really
happy to be able to help in any way I
can.

The OPP mailing list is a system where you send a letter to the list and it goes to everyone else on it.

You should join and you can be a researcher send any info you have to people building planes and test fly planes.

If your into that anyway


Artistic veiws would be cool. Any sort of cutaway is what i'm after.

Thanks again man. Get your icq going and we can stop useing this monster post hehe
