I've added a scan of a couple articles from the October 1961 issue of Model
Aircraft magazine. It includes pictures and a contest report from the
first world champs held in Cardiington in 1961. It also includes plans and
a write up about Max Hacklinger's 90cm model that flew for more than 44
minutes.
The other scan is the 1996 world champs booklet. It contains plans from a
number of world championship winning models.
