Hi! Everyone, I believe you are all fine as I am. I appreciate @mesola for sustaining this beautiful contest. Today, I constructed an aeroplane using waste cartons and waste plastic bottles for the kids in this community. I believe that the parents in the community will also like it. Here are the details of the construction.

Step 1
I clean the plastic rubbers and remove the label from them. I also drew the cabin (windows) and the cockpit (flight deck) using a crayola colour.

Step 2
I constructed the wing of the aeroplane using waste paper. I measure the length to be 30cm, the width at both ends to be 3.5cm and the width at the centre to be 5cm. I drew this measurement on the waste carton and then cut it out using a paper cutter.

Step 3
I gummed the three rubbers on the wing. The two small rubber serve as the turbine engine while the Coca-Cola bottle is the fuselage (body of the aeroplane). I also seal the edge of the wing with masking tape.

Step 4
I constructed the elevator and the vertical stabiliser. The elevator measures 16cm in length while the stabiliser measures 10cm. I drew it on the waste carton and cut it out using paper cutter. I seal the edges of the elevator and stabiliser using masking tape, and lastly, I gummed them on the aircraft.

Step 5
I constructed the tyres of the aeroplane using bottle tops and cartons. I cut the carton to be 4.5cm long and the width to be 1cm. Lastly, I gummed two bottle tops together and the carton at both ends.

Step 6
I mount the tires on the aeroplane using strong adhesive. One tyre in the front and two at the back.

I constructed a four-blade propeller and mounted it on a turbine engine and one on the nose of the aeroplane.

Step 8
I coloured the aeroplane using a light blue acrylic colour. I got the colour by mixing deep blue with white acrylic colour.

Step 9
I coloured the cockpit and the cabin using a black acrylic colour. I also coloured the tires and the four-blade propeller with black acrylic colour, and lastly, I coloured the edge of the cockpit with white acrylic colour and a touch of deep blue colour on the wing and the stabiliser of the aeroplane.
