Default Mr. Mulligan ! (photo heavy)

Okay I know its not 'naval' but...

There was a discussion in General about paper airplanes. I posted about having built stick and tissue models for a loooong time.

Here is my latest start ! Enjoy !

Almost forgot the box shot !


Credit where credit is due



A sense of its scale


T pins !


The stringers are of 3/32" balsa. The wood is of very poor quality. I may have to throw the lot out and get some 'good' wood from the hobby shop. In the meantime

They sure are thin ! (Thats the edge of a quarter behind)


My 'workspace'



Ill add more as she comes along or I end up burning it :rotfl: I really have my doubts of the fuse holding together with the thin stringers. Still they get doubled up in some spots and Ill be adding gussetts so we will see.
