The stiffness of the model seems OK. I can pick it up by the wings which
seems to be the natural way to handle it anyway. I didn't reinforce the
side engine intakes because I didn't want to tie everything down while I
was still moving surfaces around on their hinges. If I go back in and
lock down the side intakes then I could probably pick the model up by
the fuselage. The upper surface panels are stiff.
