Default Looking for Parson Two Plans

Hello Group,

I think I posted my last request in error. I had been looking for RF-140 plans and it seems that I should have been asking for a copy of Parson's Two plans. I'm not sure that I really want to build the Parson's Two, but I would like to use the plans as a reference. If someone has a set in electronic format I would really enjoy the opportunity to have a reference set.

I am new to the group and have not had much to share at this level. I do however, share my aviation metal art by donation with the Chapters whom I am a member of. Hopefully, this will provide me with some value beyond just being a requestor within the Rotary Wing Forum.

Glen

Hi Buddy!!!

If any of my rotorhead friends could help Glen out with these plans Chapter #1, #31 and I would really appreciate it.

Glen and Rose have stepped up from the very beginning offering to make both chapters weather-veins that we can raffle off as fund raisers.

To see what he is making for Chapter 31 check out this thread: http://www.rotaryforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=32758

Thank you Glen and Rose!!!!

Mike,
Would it be much trouble if I ask for a copy too?
Mine were lost at the CAA. Don't know how but the annual inspector got them and since then I did not see them. Nobody has them. (It happens these too)
Thanks.

Thanks again Mike for the plans.
A question for you and other Parsons aficionados...what are your thoughts of the location/size of the HS on the drawings?

I do like the mast arrangement; seems it would be convenient to change rotor-head location during a design.

Chris

As you can see, these plans are dated 1990. There has been a lot of changes to the size and location of the horizontal stabilizers over time and I'm sure that a change to this one could improve handling.

I plan to make a slight change to the size and location of my KB3 stab from the original plans.
