cradle Explanation: Would be my suggestion, based on a write-up I found of large airplane construction (in German; see web reference below) that shows Helling to be a sort of frame which holds airplane parts during the construction process, and also a reference in connection with model airplane construction using the term "cradle". "Eine Helling dient der Formgebung und Lagebestimmung komplexer Modellformen. Wird mit Hilfe einer Helling gebaut, so werden Schalenbauweise und Skelettbauweise miteinander vereint. Die Helling erlaubt es, eine Ebene als Referenz zu wählen und darauf aufbauend zunächst die Beplankung und dann die Rippen einzusetzen. Winkel und Lage werden dabei von der Helling vorgegeben und durch Verkleben der Schale mit dem Skelett auf das dann selbsttragende Modell übertragen."
