ABSTRACT:
A model aircraft construction jig includes an elongate baseboard, a plurality of fuselage side cramp members, means for fixing the side cramp members on the baseboard, a tail unit locator and means for fixing the tail unit locator on the baseboard. The baseboard has at least one longitudinal guide line defining a reference center line, and the side cramp members are positionally adjustable so as to be arranged in rows spaced at opposite sides of the center line so that clamping faces thereof can engage respective side walls of a fuselage assembled on the center line. The tail unit locator is also mounted and fixed in selective predetermined relationship to said center line and has an angularly and vertically adjustable forwardly-projecting arm having open-ended guide slot means adapted to engage and locate in position the tail fin and rudder portion and the tail plane and elevator portions of a tail unit during construction and fitting thereof to a fuselage held between the side cramp members and aligned with said center line.
