Fixing some links

The links ended up overlapped. Put each link on a separate line.
Nice looking planes. The slab wing plane looks like someone's first airplane, and possibly decorated as a pre-teen. Hopefully there is a reasonable number of layers of paint on it. My first plane I repainted time and time again while Mom was repairing Dad's control line combat planes. It quickly became too heavy to fly!
The wing looks pretty good too. I would repair the elevator by scabbing a piece in that was matched off the other corner. Cut the break clean so the scab can be glued in neat. I have done this several times on other planes. I would finish stripping the coating as best as possible, not worrying about the silk and dope stuck to the ribs IF it is only one layer, lightly sand, then cover with a plastic film covering and get flying.
I recommend you trace the rib on the wing accurately before covering it. If you need to make repairs having the pattern helps.
