The show the spar and rib construction quite well.

The Sky Pup is made of foam, wood and fabric so it is a composite
aircraft. Most of the time when refering to composite aricraft the
speaker
means fiberglass, kevlar or carbon fiber.

Conceptually, those other materials can be substituted for the wood
in a SKyPup-like design, though ther result might not necessarily have
a better strenght to weight ratio. The wood in the SKy Pup is used
very
efficiently.
