If I want to scale a plane to 75%, besides making the parts 75%, what else would I need to be looking at? The only requirement would be to fly like the original. How would I determine power requirements? Would the weights theoretically be 75%? Are there some rules of thumb to follow for feasibilty of even doing it?

Maybe there's a book or paper on it, or a thread here...I haven't found it yet. I could be searching for the wrong terminology.
