Vintage Peanut Scale Model Airplane Articles and Plans
The following is a list of Peanut Scale model airplane plans with articles. The articles and plans were published in various magazines in the 1960’s through the 1980’s. Much of this information is available online as scanned PDF files of the magazines. I have transcribed the articles for easy online browsing. New PDF files were created that print to scale on standard Letter sized (8.5″ x 11″) paper. These plans will usually print on two sheets of paper and need to be trimmed and joined.
There aren’t many plans currently listed here, but there are many on the way! I hope to add at least one article with plan per week. So check back regularly. If there is something specific you’re looking for drop me a line, I may have what you need.
I am not affiliated with the magazines or authors of these articles. This information is shared as a fellow hobbyist to encourage this fascinating hobby and to preserve its rich history.
