Mirage2000

Here is one of my favourite jet planes, Not only it is easy to build, it is fun to fly! In a sense, it's able to handle slow speeds (25-40km/h) and higher speeds above 60km/h. No worries about flying a delta wing plane because it's able to handle stalls very well , Meaning if the plane is about to stall to it's doom, just throttle up and it'll fly away! This plane here is partially made of white styrofoam and blue foam for the wings.

White foam is very light yet brittle. But, once again who said plane is built to crash? Don't crash it and you need not worry about the brittle material! With the light weight structure, the plane is able to perform loops/barrel rolls...etc with ease.
