At one point, Estes was selling an add-on parasite glider, the Firefly. I guess it was a way to dump a bunch of leftover Bomarc parts (grin). The plans at JimZ's show the outlines and dimensions, but I've simplified them somewhat, and made them easier to transfer the design to a piece of cardboard or foamboard. They work well upscaled. I've made a *lot* of these by printing the design on heavy cardstock and using a bamboo skewer for a body.
