Flyable plastic airplane and method of manufacture

A method of fabricating a ready to fly plastic airplane comprising the steps of:

• forming a first portion of the airplane having a first fuselage section, left and right wing sections connected to said first fuselage section, and left and right horizontal tail sections connected to said first fuselage section,
• forming a second portion of the airplane having a second fuselage section, left and right wing sections connected to said second fuselage section, and left and right horizontal tail sections connected to said second fuselage section,
• joining said first and second portions to create a wing and fuselage assembly with left and right horizontal tail surfaces,
• trimming excess material around a periphery of said joined portions,
• separating said left and right horizontal tail surfaces from said fuselage,
• mounting a pivot tube with bearings and control horn through each side of the fuselage where the horizontal tail surfaces had been attached,
• reconnecting the horizontal tail surfaces to their respective sides of said fuselage, wherein each horizontal tail surface may pivot on opposite sides of said fuselage about a horizontal axis,
• connecting said horizontal tail surfaces to a control means to produce pivotal movement of said horizontal tail surfaces,
• mounting a motor driven propeller on the fuselage forward of the wings,
• mounting a landing gear on the fuselage,
• covering at least a portion of the airfoil surfaces of said formed airplane with a thin film material.
