How many out there remember Captain Blackhawk and the Blackhawk Squadron fighting tyranny and oppresion. It is an interesting scheme . My wife looked up the comic books and found a lot of them for sale on e-bay. |

The tail feathers are over build with many ribs. I decided to make these out of 1/8th balsa sheet. |

A single sheet provides the pattern for the building parts. Be sure to make an extra set. I made three sets and was very glad I did, |

This us my first build from Cleveland plans and I find them a bit of over engineered. The single sheet of XF5F-1 Skyrocket are no ecception. Before starting I made a second set so I could read the instructions on the sheet while building. |
