ORIGINAL: F-16 Skywalker Broke out the Ryobi bansaw(gotta mess to clean up before the wife see it Cut out the Balsa and Plywood parts. in the last picture is of the aft part of the plans,nowhere on it does it detail anything about the thrust tube,should there be a plywood ring close the the outlet to hold the thrust tube? The thrust tube fits flush to the fuse. It will also be cut to form to the over hang at the tail. One thing you might want to do is put a 1/2 bulk head ring in the tail to tie the vertical fin and horizontal fins togeather. The fuse in this aera will have some flex left and right viewed from the back forward. The 1/2 ring will stiffen this up. Also you wight want to consider a 1/8th inch ply spare about 2 to 3 inches up into the vertical fin and tied into the 1/2 ring.
