Charles Metz

Welcome to the Reference section of the LSP website. This section is dedicated to the memory of esteemed member Charles Metz, who died from cancer on 4 July 2012. Charles was famous for not only his extensive reference library, but also his willingness to help fellow modellers with their research questions. Charles generously donated his reference library database to the LSP Reference project, and it forms the basis of our current resource. Thanks Charlie, you will be missed.


This section is a work-in-progress, and is far from finished. Improvements are planned and will be implemented as time permits, but if you would like to report any problems, or make any suggestions, please feel free to do so by emailing editor@largescaleplanes.com.

Below is a list of 'canned' searchs for popular aircraft types, which will be expanded in due course. Each link will take you to a list of books in our database that covers that particular aircraft. A full-search interface is coming soon, but in the meantime you can search by aircraft type using the Quick Search function below.
