Curtiss Fledgling, help
Posted by Alvarenga on Sunday, June 28, 2009 4:18 PM

Dear friends

The Military Airmail of Brazilian Military Aviation begun with this ugly and square biplane.

I intend to make an scratch model of this airplane but untill now all my searches to find good scale plans have failed.

Could somebody help me to find a good scale plans of this Curtiss?

Peter Westburg made some years ago an excellent set of plans but, here in Brazil, it's impossible to get copies of these plans.

Thanks. Regards

Noticed that Smithsonian still sells his prints.  You might try emailing or letter writing them if there are currency or shipping problems to Brazil.   I'm sure if you impressed them with the size and importance of your project, they would be happy to assist.  Also, promise to give them adequate  recognition for their assisstance.
