Summary edit

Description

Making indoor toss around gliders couldn't be easier. Make a photocopy of the plan. Cut out the flying surfaces from the overhead view, except fin and rudder from the profile. Cut out two copies of the fuselage in profile, put some 1/16" sticks between the two pieces of paper - a perimeter and some trianguation - maybe even a solid-ish bit at the tip of the nose. Bend a little airfoil into the wing for stiffness. Folding the leading edge back under would be even better. Enjoy. Works best with 11" or shorter wings, Think more paper and less balsa wood, except around the nose OV-10 is perfect because the center pod can have full structure but the booms can be just a single stick.
