Default RE: Help identifying old plastic pattern plane

ORIGINAL: aerowoof

what type of wing is it?dee bee used a very thin plastic covering over foam thet loosened over time.if it is a built up wing there were several aftermarket plastic kwik fly fuselages offered back in the late 60's early 70's as well as fiberglass.,could be one of them.

The covering is, as you say, a thin plastic film directly over foam. The covering is fairly tight with only a little loosening in an area where there was a slight dent. I'm guessing this is not a heat-shrink covering. Is that correct?

Thanks,

Neal
