  If you have the collection, it’s in the July, 1986 issue of Model Builder.

Four 8.5 X 11 split pages for home printers are available for download from this page. There is plenty of overlap for cutting and taping. When printing, check wingspan at 16 inches and stab span at 8 inches.

This 14 inch span stick plane is a simple flyer. The prop is limited to 6 inch diameter, but source is optional. Covering may be film or tissue. Produce bag plastic is an economical option. When the PDF plans are printed “actual size” the total wing span should be 14 inches.
