Title: 3 view Drawings
Post by: Thomas Wilk on November 09, 2010, 08:32:08 AM
I am thinking about offering CDs of 3 view drawings.  possibilities would be - military single engine - military multi engine - civilian single engine - civilian multi engine. 

Would anyone anyone be interested in these?

I'm not sure if this info helps, but the 42 nd street library used to have a real nice collection of old model magazines on micro fitch.

I do think it is a viable task. However copyright infringement might get in the way. I have a heck of a time getting koku fan 3 views enlarged because of that.

Doesn't copy right have a time limit? VD~

the short answer is yes and no.  the time limits are different for different things ie; magazines, songs, or books are all different.  when i did my CDs of the magazine articles I was told ' if it was more than 17 years' I would not have a problem.  that is why my cds end at 1975.  a lot of my 3 views were found on the internet so most seem to be in the public domain.  i'm now trying to find out what i have amassed might be under copywrite.

 Tom,

 To me it would totally depend on the quality and accuracy of the drawings. I'm sure you know this Tom, but three view drawings are found in many books and other places, but very few are truly accurate. If what you're thinking of would be as good as Paul Matt or Superscale stuff I'd be very interested. Personally, my interest would be from the mid 30's through WWII etc. I'd kill for a detailed high quality Paul Matt type B-25 Mitchell three view also showing the fuse bulkheads and other details. I've yet to find a really good one.
