polikarpov I-16

Does anyone out there have or know of a 3-view for the 2 seat version of this little fighter?  I think it was designated uth4  or uht4.  It is an interesting mod to a cute little plane.

Thomas thank you for the photo and the correct model #.  I did some more searching with the correct model and found a 2-view (side and top) that will let me get started on the working drawings.  Thanks again

The Flying Heritage museum near here has an I-16 single seater. Let me know if you need info, I can probably swing by there at some point.

Bob Banka of Bob's Aircraft Documentation lists 10 different 3-views for that airplane in his catalog.  These vary in quality from fair to outstanding.  He also has photopaks of the airplane.  40 photos, in color, of a replica built from original parts  If you are really interested in this airplane, Bob's catalog is worth looking at.

You can talk to bob at

(714 979-8058

For those that are interested in Banka's collection, his catalog lists over 39,000 3-view drawings and he has over 400,000 photos in stock.  Many of those photos were taken as a modeler would take photos of a full scale aircraft for scale documentation.

Some of the 3-views are of limited value, but others are quite good.  In some cases, even though the 3-views might not be of highest quality, sometimes they are the only thing available.

I have gotten several of BOb's 3 views and photo packs. All were tops in quality.

I built a Blue Pants as a kid. Wish I still had it. Might even learn to fly it.
