Help! I am looking for a good 3-view to build a 1/8 or 1/4 scale F3F. I have an OLD zerox copy of a Model Airplane News piece titled The Best Of Wylam, which is great, but I can't read it. I believe it is from an early 80's issue. If anyone may have one I would be really interested.
If anyone has any additional info/material, it would be well received. I have been wanting to build this for quite awhile. THANKS, Ken:D

I love your moniker--have you read the guns of Toko Ri?

OK, I found a great page with loads of warbird 3-views:

The F3F is there. :)
Also, while the F3F in not there you may wanna look over Eduadro's pages, he has loads of 3-views

Blackhawk,
Don't you mean The Bridges at Toko-Ri which was written by James Michener and starring William Holden and Grace Kelly?

Blackhawk,
Don't you mean The Bridges at Toko-Ri a novel written by James Michener and made into a motion picture starring William Holden and Grace Kelly?

Yes I meant the Bridges at Toko Ri not the Guns of Navarrone which got my mind mixed up. It was a senior moment.

Check Bob Banka's web site:

You can download his catalog in PDF format. He lists 2 3-views of the F3F at $3 each.
Gary Hunter has a rubber powered F3F design by William Winter which you can download.

Did you ever find the drawings you were looking for?
I have fuselage, wings, and tail drawings printed from the original Grumman factory drawings. If you want copies reply to me at rcw@crossvinyl.com
