Question good (scale)drawings for Fokker D.16/17 and Douglas DB 8

Although the subject says it all, could someone help me find good scale drawings on the Fokker D.XVII (D.17) and/or D.XVI (D.16) and Douglas DB 8.

A tip where to find such material is helpful, but I am hoping for something more tangible (out of funds for the time being).

I would love to start work on a number of profiles and I need good drawings before I can do anything.

As a side note.

Although I have reasonable drawings for the Curtiss P-6, I was hoping someone could help me with details on the Export version (I do have some photos, from Squadron/Signal etc), but they are lacking a number of details.

Thanks!

You may consider a phonecall to Mr. Frits Gerdessen - Gorichem!

Thanks Wim, unfortunately I don't think Mr. Gerdessen is waiting for phonecalls from strangers asking this sort of thing.

MLM 12 is out of print.

Wim, I know you are bit of a magician when it comes to rare books...

Any chance you can help me find a number of MLM issues?

Also, does anyone here know Frits Gerdessen, perhaps his E-mail?

Thanks to both Wim and Kutscha!

Wim, should I remove the address from the forum, or doesn't Frits mind that this e-mail address is displayed in public (spam risk etc).

Ruy
Definetely remove @ (Cat, dog, monkey, how do you call it?) from the address, so it could not be detected.
