RE: Plans for scratch-building large jets?

Here's another plan of the CF-100. 1/6 scale with a 115" span.

Slightly different construction method.
The entire fuse is made of blue foam. Fiberglass the whole thing with 4 -6 oz cloth. Get your super finish on the outside, then burn out the foam on the inside.

Voila !! A one-off fiberglass shell!!
Those engine nacelles are 4 feet long.
