MoFo Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 Getting prepped to build an Olimp Jenny, and I've got zero references on the type. What's out there in the way of reference books, decent scale drawings, etc? Primarily looking at early marks, and at the Canuck (and how to convert an early mark into a Canuck ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Link for everyone else (since it's not actually listed in your WWI Digest page) So, any thoughts on good a good set of scale drawings (apart from the ones that come in the kit?)

Skyking Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 I have some real nice 3 views I can scan and snail mail to you Mofo. They show the interior structure as well as rigging points and engine details. Drop me a mail address offline and I can get them out to you. Cheers Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Skyking Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Hey Mofo I wanted to let you know that I didn't forget you. The Xenon lamp in my scanner went belly up and I had to order a new lamp from Xerox. As soon as I get it installed I'll get those scans out to you. Sorry for the delay. Cheers Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MoFo Posted June 29, 2005 Author Share Posted June 29, 2005 NP - thanks for the update. And since you've bumped this, I might as well take the opportunity to re-iterate that I'm still looking for Jenny/Canuck drawings. Apparently Volume 15 #3 of Cross & Cockade had a large feature on the Canuck, so if anyone's got a copy of that they'd be willing to scan, it'd be appreciated. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phil wegner Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 i have some photos of jenny lg wooden models showing framework and rigging detail taken at smithsonian. i might be able to enlarge and fax them or for a couple buck, send them to you(to cover postage) www.jawegner@earthlink.net Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MoFo Posted July 13, 2005 Author Share Posted July 13, 2005 Thanks for the offer, but I think Skyking's scans have me covered, drawing wise. I AM still on the lookout for that Cross & Cockade article, though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RCAFFAN Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 Mofo..I've got some old RT's with lots of Canuck markings schemes and info but no scanner. Could always set up a meet sometime as we haven't run into each other in a while..Let me know if interested and we could always talk on the phone to set up something....
