He had some drawings and information from Brian Taylor many years ago. As far as we know Brian Never published a working plan. He is stuck for information on the so called Zap flaps, if anybody has pictures or any other information please let me know. Regards Mike __________________ Mike.

The above result was supported with large images which I reduced inboard top and bottom portions. I still consider this line art poor as it does not disclose the wing/flap swing angles. I know there are better ones out there. This was easy and quick to post after editing down to proper size. Ordering a properly scaled Jerry Bates Fairey Fulmar plan set or reducing it to your required size at a graphics service will serve to create templates for correcting a less than plan. Contact Jerry for particulars of doing this. This represents a start, not an end result to acquire proper documentation. Good luck! __________________ Ed http://www.flitemetal.com http://www.mac-models.com   Back to Top  Printer Friendly Version  Profile  Search  Web    Swift Site Supporter Joined: June/13/2014 United Kingdom Posts: 14 IP Logged Posted: February/23/2017 at 2:52pm  Quote   Thanks very much for getting back to me, I am sure the pictures will help __________________ Mike.

Prior to the last hurricane I believe the Lone Star Museum in Galveston had a disassemble aka less that restoreable level one. Have not been down there since much of it was going to move to Ellington Field further inland here in Houston. You need either of two things to guide you through this. Either an erection and maintenance manual or a detailed field service manual will contain both oblique illustrations of mechanical function of wing folding which will clearly show the portions of the flap folded as a separate function.    __________________ Ed http://www.flitemetal.com http://www.mac-models.com   Back to Top  Printer Friendly Version  Profile  Search  Web    Swift Site Supporter Joined: June/13/2014 United Kingdom Posts: 14 IP Logged Posted: February/24/2017 at 11:22am  Quote   Thanks for the info ScaleAero __________________ Mike.
