Armstrong Whitworth FK8

I’m researching the AW FK8… has anyone got any plans for this aircraft?

Factory blueprints would be unbelieveable, but RC model plans would be just as good.. I have alot of photographs, but I need details of the internal structure.

Thanks in advance.

The wings if I recall were based on the BE2c, with slight changes to the ailerons.

Surely that would be a little ambitious?….

Just acquired a copy of the book, so thanks for the tip John…. and its not bad at all. Certainly good for the fwd fuselage. Any idea on the details of the wings structure?

Would this be leading to a replica?

A useful source of general information is the Windsock Datafile No64 AW FK.8 by J.M. Bruce. It contains drawings and some photos showing internal details.
