Graupner 'Caravelle' ~ Laser-cut Rib Set

Note: This set is not a complete kit. A plan is not included, and additional materials are required to complete the model.

This model is of traditional construction and a really good looker. Where it scores most heavily though is in the flight characteristics. On the one hand, these are very forgiving, which makes the model a perfect choice for the less experienced modeller, but also is capable of being 'wrung out' by the skilled expert! Additional building instructions are available (email) by request.
