Aircraft reference drawings & KC-97

[Sheriff]

Hi all,

Here is a site with good line drawings of aircraft. As the drawings are large and detailed, it is good for both SB and FD scale aircraft.

Unfortunately, they lack one aircraft I would like. Does anyone have any good line drawings of the C-97, KC-97, and/or Boeing 377?

Wow! Thanks a lot!

Hi there ! while this post is a pretty old one, just wished to let you know I am actually working on the C97, KC97, B377, essentially in FD scale (side, top, front, cutaways) but did some preliminary work on the SB classical profile. Not fully elligible on Shipbucket but should anyone be interrested I might share the link where these images are stored. Most practical would be an email on pierre.deveaux@laposte.net And Happy New Year to all !

There's a whole line of those wishing to do these.

Anyway, happy new year.

I understand. While my FD drawings need to be totally redone (and are being so), a preliminary version is avaible there :

Very nice work, even if not fully to FD standards.

[PierreDeveaux]

Absolutely. I mean: not fully to SB standards. Hence my not even trying to submit them, as outlined on my website. But if they are of any help. Profiles need to be redone however, hence the "red stamp" added to the existing drawings, but that's what I am doing for the moment (sections are nearly ready - will be added to the list in the course of the day.

Hard to tell who actually will be the one to finally do B377 here, but certainly You deserve many thanks for Your effort.

Pierre, I'd like to politely let you know that FD scale isn't 22 pixels per meter, but the maddening 22.093 pixels per meter (the first artist should have been shot for this).
