⟬ Juno Fortnight ⟭——[ puzzles designed by Junichi Yananose ]——12. Kumiki Airlines (2013)
made by Brian Young, presented at the Edward Hordern IPP33 Puzzle Exchange in Narita, Japan, August 2013.
from Sue Young's description:
The plane is incorrectly assembled and can’t possibly fly like this. You need to take the puzzle apart and reassemble it to make it more aerodynamic. To do that on reassembly you’ll have to solve the level 13.4 multiple move burr.
"Kumi ki" is a Japanese word that means "to assemble wood" or "put together wood". Usually used in the puzzle world to mean interlocking burr puzzles that when assembled form a particular figure although this level of complexity is definitely a new concept. We don’t know of other Kumiki puzzles with this level of difficulty made before.
