This plan provides a slightly smaller flight-tested version. However, the small crocodile is rather meant to be flown as line-laundry. Due to its low angle of attack it would need smooth, steady winds and plenty of space for solo flights. If you’ve read or even built a kite on basis of one of the former plans, you may come upon repetitions and similarities in some work stages and passages. Again this is intended, as the earlier plans have been found to be plain and easy to comprehend. Since the writing style most certainly provides easy access to build inflatable kites even for beginners, there was no reason to change it.

In areas with particular strain, reinforcement strings are sewn on or into the seam, respectively. At all bridle-points and where the inner brace lines will be attached later on, the reinforcement strings should cross to avoid fabric tearing. The plan shows the positions for the reinforcement strings as green lines. In addition the spots for the brace lines are indicated by green circles. The bridle-points are numbered consecutively and placed in yellow circles, and the lifter attachment points are shown in blue. Red marks show the exact positions of the spikes and claws.
