Model Plane's Stinger is almost perfect replica of real safety-match model plane I build many years ago. In real world this very tiny flying model is made of one safety-match as fuselage. Wings and stabilizers is made of paper with bamboo splint as wing underlay. Fly perfect. But this virtual version fly even better ;-)

This is version with jet booster used for take-off and climbing to high altitudes.

Take off from airport like normat jet plane. After reaching the required height, or after spend all fuel, press 7 to detach booster.
