Prop Airplane papercraft

Small Aircraft Bastelbogen
These papercraft models of propeller driven airplanes are free samples from the Hairston Aviation website. On top is a 1:60 scale model of a Cessna 172 and the lower model is a Pitts S-1S at 1:45 scale (downloads
here). Besides these two free ones, there are dozens of other airplane model templates available for a few dollars a piece. All the models are the work of James J. Hairston, an aviation enthusiast who started building card model aircraft when he was a kid during World War II.

  2. It appears that the original geocities site is gone for good. I have replaced the original links for both the planes with alternate links.

    5. Sorry I don't. The designer of the model has not provided those.
