Sketching up an Airplane in 3D, Part 3

The Google Sketchup warehouse has some more airplane tutorials. To make rather accurate fuselage designs, first sketch them in 3-view (2D plans) and then make lofting 3D in SketchUp.

Links to some tutorials follow:

To build them, you have to anyway draw several work drawings from the "master" model. Afterwards it might be possible to join all those work drawings and models and make a more accurate 3D model.
