    Instruction Manual. INTRODUCTION. Thank you for choosing the CESSNA 188 AGWAGON ARTF by SG MODELS . The CESSNA 188 AGWAGON was designed with the intermediate/advanced sport flyer in mind. It is a semi scale airplane which is easy to fly and quick to assemble. The air- frame is conventionally built using balsa, plywood to make it stronger than the av- erage ARTF, yet the design allows the aeroplane to be kept light.
