Start with a good cakeboard. We used plywood because it fed 100 and was huge but a double layer of foamcore board would work. stack your cakes with fillings (perhaps 9x11) and then carve the general shape. Crumb coat, then cover with fondant. the wings are made seperately form foamcore then covered and spiked into the cake with bamboo skewars and some royal icing as glue. If you don't want to make royal icing you can water down some fondant until itls real sticky and use that as your glue. The engines were foam eggs coverred in fondant (first coat them in icing). Let us know how this works out.
