Super Star 60

[Karl G. Mueller]

Larry,

This sounds like a Kit made in Europe. The wings are laid up in a similar process as the new fuselages are on the Angels Shadows, except that on
the wings they use a type of foam called "Rohacell" instead of the balsa.
The wing properly has only about two ribs supporting the wing tube. The 
rest of the wing is completely hollow. On some of the new wings the hinges for the ailerons are part of the top skin. Usually a very light construction. The disadvantage is that you have to paint the wings. The stab does not have to be adjustable if you take care to mount it in the proper position to start with and 
the wings are adjustable.

  I'm posting this for a friend that just bought a Super Star 60 at a swap meet.

  I've never seen the likes of this type of kit. The fuse looks like gel coated fiberglass. The wings appear to be gel coated fiber glass over thin blue foam. It has plug in wings and calls for adjustable stab. Molded in Pipe tunnel and removable chin cowl. The stabs are sheeted foam.

  Looking for tips on building. Is the adjustable stab necessary on this plane?
