Center fuselage
The center section is cylindrical and contained framing that make the main landing gear bays. Those bays are really simple with zero definition. In addition, the center section will support the wing spar.
here are the center frame assembly push it thru the fuselage section and rotate into position as needed. No glue a this point. Once in position, it can be glued in place. Its ready now. add the rectangular wing spar, but do not glue it yet. mate the center section to the aft section. Isaac

Nose section
Like the rest of the fuselage, the nose section is all cylinders and cones
You need to add a small amount of weight in the nose to prevent a tail seater model. Add the simple nose gear bay go aft and add sections Here is the cockpit tub. Actually it is a "nothing" I am disappointed at the lack of any semblance of detail. insert it from the back and add the instrument panel. now the front and aft fuselage halves are ready for mating.

Wings
These are the simplest wings you will ever see. Pure rectangles.
dry fit add small card strips to the fuselage to allow for better gluing at the root. glued to the fuselage only at the roots ( do not glue to the spars ). and a status look Isaac

Engines
The aircraft is powered by two small turbojets in pods on the wing tips ( in addition, there is a rocket engine in the tail ).
Here are the parts ( all circles.... ) roll, and assemble here are both engines ready for installation (the paper got sort of cracked around the edges; paper is probably old ). instead of using the card spar that goes thru the wing to support the engines, I elected to use a wood chop stick that was inserted thru the existing paper spar and inserted thru the side of the engine cut a small hole in the engine attachment side for a wood spar glue the engines on and add the small fairing at the rear intersection.
