So correct there...I gave that airplane to a guy who had quite a few youngsters that kinda would hang-out with him at his place in town. So that same plane is still providing new fliers with fun. It was tough as nails with some kind of cardboard laminated ribs. Best rib material I have seen...it bounces right back to shape after a mishap. It did see many crashes of sorts...but survives yet! I used tranparent covering on the wing & my boy at age about 12...wrote his name on one of the shear ribs bfore I covered the wing .That was 1978......some time ago........................................ .............. ............
