Grumman Goose - drawings wanted
 
Hello, I´m searching for drawings which show the panel lines and the rivet lines of the airframe, special the surfaces of the wing and horizontal stabilizer. I want it for modelling purposes, I would be glad if somebody could help.

You must be sure what sample you want as well there is variation in the panel lines...

rivet lines of the original 1937 goose
 
Hello Pilot, thank you for reply.

The most important for me is the course of the rivet lines on all upper and lower surfaces of the original 1937 version (partial fabric covered wing).

In this way you need some good images, from my own experience they are better as well you have always different types of rivets used. Maybe try from here as start point:

Hello Pilot, thank you for this hint but I have seen all this a.net-photos alredy. These picture-databases are very valueable, but almost all are "spotter"-photos which show the airplanes by side only. I think I have sighted all the photos that are available in the www, but I have not found one that show the upper surface of the wing. One good photo could be enough!

The original drawings of this aircraft type are still existing but they are not available simply...

Well... I have thousand of images, I will take time and see did I have any image of your interest and make scan for you. My problem is that I am not interest in non military aircrafts so box with this kind of images (as well external storage HDD) is waste land.

I have some time ago make illustration of this subject so I have realize difficulties with type.

Cheers :)
