I am looking for Westland Widgeon drawing if someone can help……

Have copy’s of all 12 that Westland still have…………..!

Have some DH60 and Lots of DH84 drawings. Small Box of BA swallow drawing

And lots of Travelair ‘R’ drawings
😉

I’ve got a fairly complete set of drawings for the Nieuport 23 / 24 / 27 “Vee Strut” series, I acquired them from another forum member some years ago.

Very nice.

Are any of the parts drawings the same as those for the type 11 & 17 ?.

Cheer’s.

The Vintage Glider Club has many of the Slingsby glider drawings, plus a few other types of glider.
The trouble is that at least the Slingsby Kirby Kite 1 drawings do not tie up with the glider its self! So you would have real problems if you wanted to make a new glider from the drawings.

Hi Dave

Do you by any chance have a list of types TVGC have drawings for ?. I did hear that they had a number of BAC drawings, inc ones for the BAC VI & Drone etc.

Rolls hold loads of theirs for the Griffon etc

Great idea!

DH Hornet and Sea Hornet ~56-60% remaining in BAE archives.

…. and a large number of these much closer to home! 😉

HP Herald, Concorde, BAC1-11 50% to 75%

Bloke I got them off had a load of Hawker Hurricane drawings…..but he burnt them a while ago as nobody was interested in them and he needed the space.

G’day all

It’s one thing to say the drawings exist, it’s another to have access to them. For instance where can I get DH60 drawings. I have a friend who is restoring a DH60.

DeHavilland support group have a large number of drawings for early DH aircraft including the DH60.
I have been told that they have nothing for the WW1 types, & I do not know exactly which types they have drawings for.
I think they are based at Duxford.
I also do not know what hoops you have to jump through to get copies of the drawings, but seem to remember that you had to have an airframe to restore, before they would even consider supplying them.

Any one have more info on the types the hold drawings for etc ?.

*These are AFEE drawings, the ‘Airframe’ drawings were by R Malcolm Ltd (ML Aviation) and although all the drawing numbers are known their existance isn’t.
