AMA Plans service how do you find anything on the AMA Plans service? Do you have to go thru it year by year or am i missing something?
I would not have the slightest idea how to do a year-by-year search for a set of plans on the AMA listing.
"Generally", the plans are listed by the name of the model. For example, Commodore starts with a "C". Behold, "Commodore" is listed in the "C" list.
If the airplane is a scale model, the listing will "normally" be under the manufacturer. "Sometimes", a scale plane will be under the prefix designation. But "sometimes", the scale plane will be under the popular name of the aircraft. Models of homebuilts are listed "normally" under either the designer or the builder.
If the AMA plans service has a set of plans, it "sometimes" takes a bit of imagination and perserverence to find them.
