This is a drawing in 1/16 scale of the Sopwith D1 80 hp Three-seater Tractor Biplane as flown by Harry Hawker 1913 in several record-breaking flights. Drawn by Leif Ohlsson 2010-12

Internal framework & rigging deduced from best available contemporary drawings & photos. Dimensions of structural members & parts intended for making a card model; they are arguably close, albeit not necessarily exact, to scale.

This is the kind of drawing I would like to see accompany any good paper model. At 1,200 x 800 mm it is not made for printing, but for poring over on your computer screen, at varying magnifications. For downloadable models, this is a feasible method.

The drawing is apt to be changed periodically. Updates will be noted here, and in the thread: "Sopwith D1 Three-seater 80-hp Tractor Biplane".
