Hey guys,

I am looking for a 3 view of the famous 1970's Fanliner.

I have not been able to procure one. I have even gone to Luigi Colani himself (who designed it) but he is in China for the next year or so working on Wind Farm generator sites.

Does anyone know of a good 3 view of this fantastic plane? I would be greatful.

Please explain 3 view Bill...
I am not Bill, nor do I play him on TV, however, a 3 view is like the one in Kilo Delta's post. It is normally a line drawing that contains a front view, a side view and a plan view. Sometimes the front view includes wheels up and wheels down versions (like in KD's example) or a front/back view. Likewise the plan view can be looking down from the top (like in KD's example) or one half can be the top view and the other half the underside view.

Three view drawings are used as a guide in modelling programs. They are placed in the background of each view and the modeller builds his model to fit the line drawing.
