Hello Everyone
My first post is a old mounting, I think also like 15 or 20 years.
I post hte images and some explication about materials and thecniques. If you want more information, you can ask and I answer, if I can.
And I apologize for my horrible english.
Ok. Lets go!

With the plane, I was drawing the pieces in cardboard, to later cut with scissors. In this case, in the superior wing, I cuted one piece and used this to cut the inferior side of the wing surface
To build the horizontal and vertical empennage, I cuted the pieces in cardboard and I glued over other cardboard; with three cardboard layers I cuted the ready pieces.
Later I curved the wing pieces to obtain the wing leading edge.
Here I glued foam pieces in the interior of the wings to obtain the correct thickness; I used white glue to attach the foam in the cardboard. Later I glued the leading edge of the superior and inferior surfaces of the wings, with white glue.

Here I built the engine fairing. A simple cardboard circle, with
