AirBorne Models Markets an airplane stand from World Models that is  
made from three pieces of soft foam rubber.  They plug into one  
another and form a stand that will hold a rather large airplane  
inverted (and the vertical fin won't hit the ground).  It costs about  
$20.  Look for it at http://www.airborne-models.com
