'Flair Baronette' ~ 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 is an after-market rib set to suit the Flair Baronette - they are not OEM parts.

The Baronette builds into a realistic sport-scale model of this famous aircraft and provides a superb mount for exciting dog fights. Three simply built flat wings, with ailerons in one only, make building straightforward. The high undercarriage necessitates careful rudder steering on take-off, which is then rewarded by surprisingly stable flight characteristics.
