Pure fiction here.
Pretend that your dear departed uncle bequeathed his hangar to you. Your uncle was an eccentric engineer with a bunch of patents and a career working in a secretive company that was rumoured to build super-secret projects for NASA, CIA and the other alphabet groups.
The hangar contains an airplane that is incomplete and a bit of a mystery. All the major parts are complete, but you cannot find the data panel on the engine????
Fortunately, a thick stack of drawings hangs from the wall above the work-bench. There are enough rivets, bar stock, carbon fibres, etc. to complete this mysterious airplane.

Challenge: this is a fictional group-build. Each contributor is only allowed to “build” one component but they are not allowed to contradict any previous “builder.”
Only one component or paragraph per “builder.”
