Looks great but also looks almost impossible to get the wing through the slot in the fuselage.

I left the 2 fuselage halves separate, split one side from the wing slot to the nose with a single Knife cut. split the other side from the wing slot to the tail.

Slide the 2 fuselage sides onto the wing, one from the back. The other from the front then glue together.

Thanks Gixergs for the heads up on this under repret aircraft.
Hmmm. I might be able to upsize thise to a nice sized +Profile RC plane.

I was able to get the wing through the fuselage slot with no problems just as it is designed and presented. It is a matter of angling the wing through the fuselage slot and aligning the wing slots and the fuselage slot. There is enough extra room in the fuselage slot so you can move the wing fore and aft to fit.

The model was printed on 176gsm paper. A 0.4 gram weight was added to the nose and some slits were cut to form the ailerons. The ailerons were bent up a little to get a nice level glide profile. Right now the weight is a paper clip on the outside of the nose. I will try placing some foil in the nose between the two fuselage pieces in the next one.

Excellent find! A nice simple build that still retains the character and beauty of one of the most famous classic planes still flying.

Long may she continue to instil awe in our kids and remind us of fearful times that will hopefully never be repeated.

Great one, Gix!
