Squiggle (oz3758)
About this Plan
Squiggle. Beginners Glider.
Quote from the designer: "The Squiggle was born in the Australian summer of 1971 when my wife and I were building our Blackfly A/2 models. A 10 year old kid was collecting pop bottles and asked if we could make him a model. I told him that if he came around the next weekend, he could build his own model. Well he did come around and the Squiggle was the result. The model has served me well over the years, introducing my son to model flying (B+W photos) in the early 80s as well as being a standard in our kids annual building course for many years. It has been flown free flight and with lightweight R/C gear even as a slope glider and electric powered with pod and with a motor in the nose."

Hi I notice the position of the Fin/Rudder is mounted on the fuselage in the picture and on the horizontal stabilser in the plan. I guess it can go in either location.Tim - 23/02/2014

Notes
* Credit field
The Credit field in the Outerzone database is designed to recognise and credit the hard work done in scanning and digitally cleaning these vintage and old timer model aircraft plans to get them into a usable format. Currently, it is also used to credit people simply for uploading the plan to a forum on the internet. Which is not quite the same thing. This will change soon. Probably.
Scaling
This model plan (like all plans on Outerzone) is supposedly scaled correctly and supposedly will print out nicely at the right size. But that doesn't always happen. If you are about to start building a model plane using this free plan, you are strongly advised to check the scaling very, very carefully before cutting any balsa wood.
