Does anyone have any 3 views, or a picture of the wing, for the Caudron C.690m (C.690) seen here...

posting for my buddy Joe.

And, unless it is an 'optical dilution', it looks like the prop turns in the opposite direction than normal.

Well, yes, a lot of the engines on the other side of the "pond" seemed to run in the opposite direction to ours. Kind of like no one can decide which side of the road to drive on, either.

As to the 3-views, why not contact ex president Frank. Since he built several stunters sorta scaled after the Caudron, he undoubtedly has pictures that would be suitable for Joe.

I did a Google Search, got tons of websites. The picture is on the first one. I thought this Caudron was a Curtis P-40 Warhawk, at first glance. Steve

I got mine from a Google image search (inculding the all-important 3-view)!

Steve,

That is the c.390; it has a different shape than the M model and seems to have retractable gear.

Tony,

The tail is different on the 3-view but it must be a variation of the same model. The rest of the airplane is the same.

Len,

Joe was going to call Frank later this week.

Thanks for all the help guys.
