Greetings

Just joined this forum and it is what I've been looking for. I'm basically a collector of documentation on pretty much anything that flies or military equipment, but with an emphasis towards aircraft. I enjoy drawing in CAD and am on the lookout for measured drawings in particular. Good to see a number of other Australians here - I've been a member of the Friends of the RAAF museum for the past 10 years and was an active volunteer for some years.

Hope I can contribute here.

Welcome to the forum nexuz. What sort of aeronautical documentation do you in your collection? I have a little collection going myself, nothing earth shattering but interesting.

Hi Dougrd

I've got a fairly extensive library of aircraft books/magazines etc, lots of 3 views and other documentation, lots of CAD drawings of aircraft (models and full size). Some is sourced on th net...some hard copies sourced elsewhere. I do some model building as well...both RC and plastic although I don't find too much time for it these days.

I did this piece on Clive Caldwell on Darius Tyminski's page some years ago..I've seen it in a number of other locations since I wrote it..in some cases word for word.

Anyway..might be of some interest..
