Having read the thread on the last flight of a BAC Drone, it got me thinking about surviving drawings for it & other BAC/Kronfeld aircraft.
Several years ago, I tried to locate copies of the BAC Drone drawings, but had little in the way of success, I was informed that both Mike Russell & Mike Beech had copies of them, but could never get confirmation of this. I believe that Brooklands has some BAC/Kronfeld drawings, as does the British Gliding Association, but again, I have not been able to confirm what they have.
Does any one on this forum, have any more upto date info, about any of the surviving drawings, or their locations ?.

All Mike Russell’s drawings are now in the Vintage Glider Club archive at Bicester. I dont recall seeing them. But I have never looked for them. How ever Mike sold the Drone to Peter Kirk so the drawings my be with him.

Have you tried Bob Ogden? He rebuilt G-AEDB before selling it on to Mike Russell (I facilitated the sale)
