Airplanes and Rockets - November 1968 American Aircraft Modeler magazine cover

Aircraft modeling has undergone significant changes over the decades - both in technology and preferences. Magazines like American Aircraft Modeler, and American Modeler before that, were the best venues for capturing snapshots of the status quo of the day.

I have been scanning and posting excerpts from my collection of AAM and AM, concentrating on model building articles and old advertisements. Whether you are here to wax nostalgic, or are just interested in learning history, hopefully you will find what you are seeking. As time permits, I will be glad to scan articles for you. All copyrights (if any) are hereby acknowledged.

Here are plans for the Junkers D-1 that I electronically scanned from my purchased copy of the November 1968 American Aircraft Modeler magazine. You might be able to scale up the image below if you cannot find suitable plans anywhere. Plans for this fine model were drawn by Mr. Joseph M. Tschirgi. All copyrights (if any) are hereby acknowledged.

The U.S. Army ordered the Junkers J-9 and designated it the D-1. Armament consisted of a pair of fixed, forward-firing Spandau guns ahead of the cockpit. Because of lack of experience with the aircraft's then-unconventional metal construction, only forty-one D-1s were completed and delivered to the Front before the Armistice in November 1918. - Fiddler's Green

The AMA Plans Service offers a full-size version of plans at a very reasonable cost. They will scale the plans any size for you. Try out my Scale Calculator for Model Airplane Plans.
