The Working Drawings of "The Black Mite"

These are some examples of the working drawings my father used to build his first aircraft. There are a few things to be noted about these drawings:

    1. They are now 20 years old and were drawn to scale; that is to say, they were 100% sized unless otherwise stated in the drawings.
    2. Each original page measured 18"x14".
    3. These drawings were scanned into JPEG files using a flatbed scanner then stitched together with a quality graphics program.
    4. The drawings have been made free to the public at many Michigan libraries. Other than the 5 or 6 copies my father has there are no original sets to my knowledge available.
    5. If you wish you can have an enhanced printed copy that contains reduced drawings and some additional notes my father included for $10 US + $1 postage or you can send $5 and receive the complete set of JPEG's via e-mail.
    6. Should you decide to remake this aircraft please remember that the last flight was almost fatal!!
