Simply toss it easily, with the
nose pointing slightly downward

If the model dives down too rap

After completing adjustments, Sc

If there's room enough, paint
an arrow with the point in the

So far We have completed the
motor stick and the propeller. We
are now ready to construct the
wings. Like birds, every aircraft de-
ponds upon its wings to soar
through the air.
To begin, cut five ribs from one
sixteenth inch square balsa wood
Then cut the wood for the leading
and trailing edge. The ribs for the
wing tips are slightly longer and
can be fitted after the other ribs
are firmly cemented in position.
With the wing frame completed,
the next step is to obtain the cor
rect dihedral angle. To do this,
cut the leading and trailing edges
with a razor blade half way through
at a point opposite the center Of
the center rib.
Crack the Spars
Crack the spars carefully between
the thumb and forefnger. Place
one side OF the wing fat on a table
and lift the tip of the other up until
it is two inches above the table.
A drop of cement at the dihedral
crack will hold the wing firmly in
place.
The wing rib will act as brace

Chief of Air Service

II MADE a suggestion some time
l. ago which seemed to fall on
fertile ground and that was,
that boys and girls flying clubs
throughout the country get busy
and paint the name of their town
on a prominent roof, so it could
be identified from the air.
Such identification marks must
be universal before the f1lvver
plane of the future can go scoot-
ing across country. To learn the
name of a town below Is not only
of vital interest to the novice flyer
but is invaluable to any pilot IT.
respective of his experience.
In reply to great many ques-
lions as to how these markings
should be laid out here's a
general answer:
They should be as simple as
possible: Select a prominent roof,
of any kind of building, and &C
cording to the space that hap
pens to be available, paint the
letters in chrome yellow. The let
tiers should be of block of type,
same size and thickness through
