Wings
The wings consist of 3 sections. Center section and two outer sections with a slight dihedral.
parts and spar/frames  I used two small rulers and clamps to keep the glued edge from curling.  Outer wing sections  center wing section  wings are joined and ready.    Isaac

Me too. Murph has offered to modify his J21 prop version to the R jet version. I am looking forward to it. Thanks Isaac

Wings joined to fuselage
The wings now can be attached to the short fuselage. Good fit.

Twin booms
Being a pusher propeller design, required attaching the tail surfaces in a way to avoid being struck by the prop. A common design was the use of a twin boom.
parts  assembled   add wood to the wing underside to attach the main landing gear  attached to the wing   and done     Note: This is a very fast build to see if it can be converted to a jet. So I did not care too much about the appearance or rough edges. This also exposed the areas of concern regarding fit and looks since I up scaled it from 1/48 to 1/33. Isaac

Tail surfaces
Here are the vertical tin fins and the horizontal one piece fin
 The vertical fins have added piece of wood stick in order to glue them to the booms without falling apart. I would say for a large 1/33 scale version this is a weak point of the design and needed that extra support. For 1/48 scale and smaller, it is probably OK.    ready  attached   Isaac
