                        Fine scale aircraft building is absorbing. However sometimes it is a real thrill to get to see the actual manuals, plans and blueprints that were used to build these aircraft back in the 1930s and 40s.  I guess collecting and browsing through these types of documents is a major hobby for me.  To date the most reliable high quality and unique original source material that I have been able to locate is on the following site which is run by real enthusiasts.  I have attached the link below.  They have a certain amount of free stuff and also auction a lot as well on eBay.
