A small toy biplane built with Meccano X Series parts.

The model shows off the excellent results that could be achieved with only a very small collection of "X" parts – the plane only uses eight "plate" parts, one disc, one screwed rod, five bolts and nine nuts, and manages to look pretty good from any angle.
