The would have one or several fuselage pieces along with several stabilizers and wings. Then, the child would attache the stabilizers and wings to the plane using pins that fit into the slots on the sides of the fuselage. The pins can be slid in the slots to move the pieces forward and backward, but there would be enough friction to keep them in place during flight. Most likely, the child's first configuration would not fly very well. Thus, they would have to experiment by changing the position and angle of the pieces. Additionally, the control surfaces on the wings could be changed. Eventually, the child would find a working configuration. Over time, they would begin to notice patterns such as a large angle of attack would cause the plane to stall.
