These kids are having a blast! It’s clear they are learning to trim (adjust for flight) but they got a few nice flights!

DIY Squirrel
I know that a lot of children and adults build the Squirrel Model Airplane from scratch. I like to see peoples’ Squirrels and their variations.
I received this picture today:
This is my squirrel. I saw another thing on another website, built
it, it epic failed. This however was the best I ever built. Thank you
sooooo much! It made me so happy to build it from scratch with my
own hands and see it fly! — Abhinav Subramanian, , 7th grade, Austin, Texas
Workshop for Cub Scouts
Here are a few shots at the First Stittsville troop a couple of weeks ago.
This method of showing the youth a step and having them execute the step works well. If you don’t have access to someone who can lead a workshop like this you can try the handbook.
