That stuff is HUGE! THat's the equivalent of 95kg strength. I'll switch to metric since that seems to be more convenient to you. I'm here in the States, so we use pounds.
Regardless, you want to go to a store that sells fishing products and purchase 5kg test line. Its diameter is .1mm, barely visible at a distance to the naked eye.
I don't know how concerned you are about puncturing the skin of your models, but I tie a piece of line to a needle. The needle has a slight bend in it to ensure the line always stays centered on the needle. Insert the needle into a small hole directly adjacent to a bulkhead or frame piece on the area of the skin that will be closest to the ceiling.
You should restring your B-17/Me-262 and marvel at the effect!
