- Andrew Bennett had originally posted the address for the National Air
- & Space Museum archive search service. They have recently moved. Their
- new address is:
-
- NASM
- Archives Division
- Room 3100
- MRC 322
- Washington, DC 20560
-
- Same deal - send them a letter requesting info on no more than 3
- aircraft. They will respond (hopefully) within 2 weeks on what info
- is available. You then send a check & they ship the stuff via UPS. The
- prices quoted were very nominal - something like $0.35 square foot for
- reproducing large size plans. There is a $3.50 UPS shipping charge.
-
- The fellow I talked to said they had things like the original
- manufacturer's drawings and maintenance manuals for some aircraft as
- well as plans specially made for modellers.
-
- I recently requested info on some aircraft that I want to model. I
- will post a followup when I get a reply from the folks in DC. This
- sounds like a good use of my Tax Dollars at last! (Has anybody out
- there got info from them?)
