Scale Airplane Drawings

The four volumes of the "Virtual Airplane" series will teach you how to create the model shown on the cover. It assumes that you may know nothing about the 3D modeling software, so it starts the course from the very basics (in Volume I and Volume II).

This book has no color pictures and only a page or two of text for each featured airplane. However, it does provide an overview of the performance and interesting facts about EVERY Army-AirForce and Air Force fighter up to the F-18. A few are skipped - there is no P-14, P-18, P-19, P-73, P-74, F-96, or F-13. Every other number, from P-1 to F-111/F-1 to F18 is present with pictures and line drawings. Note - most WWII Navy fighters are NOT included (F-4U, F-4F, F-6F etc.), but most Navy jet fighters ARE included (F-1, F-9F, F-11 etc). It also has on the insides of the front and back covers scale line drawings of all the aircraft in the book.

Rhino can create, edit, analyze, document, render, animate, and translate NURBS curves, surfaces and solids, subdivision geometry (SubD), point clouds, and polygon meshes. There are no limits on complexity, degree, or size beyond those of your hardware. Rhinoceros 8 brings new modeling tools like ShrinkWrap, a huge speed boost for Mac users, SubD Creases, PushPull workflows, better drafting tools, a more customizable User Interface, a faster Render engine, new Grasshopper data types, and much more.
