Gordy, Moldie does not mean that it had to have flap or ailerons. That is not what makes a moldie.
The Cumulus, not Cirrus, had foam cores that were covered, pressed for a wing airfoil and washout, and the fuse was plastic molded. But that is still molded. Cirruses never had flaps. The German vellum plans had them withairlerons, and the poster paper type plans did nothave them with ailerons.
