Title: Three view line drawings...please?
Post by: grizz on June 23, 2002, 08:14:31 PM: Does anyone have available, or a reference to a website or books with three view line drawings for the DH98 Mossie? Preferably the Mk VI but any varient will do.

Thanks.

Though with a quick scan I didnt find any 3 views here, you may find this site usefull.

The first link you posted is new to me...that is very close to what I'm looking for. :) Though I may have to rescale it.

The second link is one I checked first after doing a google search. I must've looked through a hundred websites this afternoon. LOL..

Anyone else? I'm really looking for accuracy in the drawings as far as drawn to scale ( the three views) and accuracy in shape and dimension.

Thx again bluedog...gonna start with that first one.

I'm using the pic from Bluedog's first link and its working out good. I would really like a more detailed drawing though. I'm trying to build a 3d model and am using them as a rotoscope. I'll get into fine detail as soon as the basic shape is worked out.

Hit the local model shop and grab a copy of Mosquito Walkaround. It's a modeler's reference book that will cost you about 15 bucks and will be loaded with all kinds of info including 3 view drawings.

I don't have that particular one, but have the ones on the B25 and P51. Well worth it both for the photos and the specific detail info.

It's published by Squadron Signal books. They also have two Mosquito in Action books full of photos and detail too. Cost about the same.
