These would be more accurately described as 3/4/5 view drawings rather than plans. Very good as a reference point.

And Jayanth, HO is only used to describe scale level for trains/railroad, AFAIK.

Thanks Sushil for that info.
I'm new to this and it will be a good learning from this forum.

Any particular scale notation used for Airplanes?

For model airplanes, it is 1/8, 1/4 etc., directly representing the proportion of the model w.r.t the original. So 1/4 (or quarter scale) would mean the the models dimensions are a quarter of the real airplane. For plans it could be 100:1 or something similar, I would guess.
