This book was a godsend for those who love whitewings, but don't want to shell out money to have more than one plane. The planes take about 20 minutes to cut out each, and another 20 minutes to assemble. The smaller planes seem to be a little heavy so choose your cardstock carefully. The bigger planes fly the best.

I have built two of them from cardstock, printed on a laser printer, and can't wait to build another one. This is a fun book filled with facts about flying and airplanes. Each page has facts about the gliders, as well as physics principles behind them.

If you want more planes, there's a companion book that offers jet planes, written by the same author.

I bought my book new at Atlantic Books for $3.98

Happy Flying!

This book is an OK book. It has gliders for beginners to Intermediate makers. I recommend that you get the kit or else you will have to get unusual sized index cards and would also need to copy the pages. You should not cut the pages out incase you need to refer to them or if you lost a piece so you could redo them. The instructions are somewhat confusing but you could understand them. The book has an interesting section about gliders, about them and tips for your glider such as makeing them fly better by adding something at the end... and tips to make it look nice. Overall I give the book an OK, three stars.

Everything was quick, especially shipping... Great price too. Description was a bit off as one page was cut out but not mentioned. Over all I'm satisfied with my purchase
