(Believe me, I thought about parting the other two out--I may yet do it.)
Well, here are the figs:

Yes, it's still a one-piece jetpack.

I agree. Most of the model could use more greeblies, and they need to
close the area right under the "nose" (in the rested position, it's below).
There are also two small gaps between the body and the canopy, and the
cockpit's "rotation" makes the cargo pod shake (and there's no way to
"lock" the rotation). However, I think the wing issue is part of keeping
the center of gravity unmistakably low--without the wings, the cockpit
section could flop either way. This way, gravity dictates rotation.
The manual has no cartoons in it, alas.
