Seaﬁre INTRODUCTION Thank you for choosing the Seaﬁre ARTF by SG MODELS . The Seaﬁre 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 airframe is conventionally built using balsa, ply- wood to make it stronger than the average ARTF, yet the design allows the aeroplane to be kept light.
