Here are plans for the Boeing B &
W 1916 Biplane that I electronically scanned from my purchased copy of the March 1965
Model Airplane News magazine. When I have more time, I will dig the magazine out of storage
and scan/OCR the rest of the article. For now you can at least review the plans. Click
on the images for larger versions. I have even large files for them at the original 200
dpi resolution. Designed and built by Mr. Francis Reynolds. Plans for this fine model
were drawn by Mr. Ray Vinup. All copyrights (if any) are hereby acknowledged.
"The Boeing Model 1, also known as the B & W Seaplane, was a United States single-engine
biplane seaplane aircraft. It was the first Boeing product and carried the initials of
its designers, William Boeing and Lt. Conrad Westervelt USN. "

Full-size plans might be available from the Model Airplane News
plans service. If not, then
you might be able to scale up the image below. Try out my
Scale Calculator for
Model Airplane Plans. Here is Boeing's official page for the
B & W 1916,
and here is a nice page from
The
Museum of Flight.

Notice:
The AMA Plans Service offers a
full-size version of many of the plans show here at a very reasonable cost. They
will scale the plans any size for you. It is always best to buy printed plans because
my scanner versions often have distortions that can cause parts to fit poorly. Purchasing
plans also help to support the operation of the
Academy of Model Aeronautics - the #1
advocate for model aviation throughout the world. If the AMA no longer has this
plan on file, I will be glad to send you my higher resolution version.
