Here you'll find the plans for Ben Buckle old timer kits. These are hand drawn, "blue print drawings" . Note, there are often variations in Old-Timer plans. Remember, these designs are from the 30's and 40's and may or may not match with the first ever publication of a model. Often models were published or built in several different sizes. The wingspan is given to help you match up what your looking for. These are the same plan sets you'd get with a Ben Buckle kit and they do their best to reproduce a historically correct model. All plan sets will be shipped gently folded as received from Ben Buckle.
