4.0 out of 5 stars 1/3 directions 2/3 paper, October 5, 2002

By A Customer

The description of this book was not clear to me when I bought it. (I am an origami person, not really an airplane person.) There are directions for 12 airplanes and (about) 6 pages of paper for each plane. The pages are marked with fold lines and numbers. They are printed with bright, vivid, interesting designs on both sides of the paper. With multiple pages for each plane, this would be a great book for sharing with several kids (or adults) all making planes together. The only reason I subtracted one star is that after all the preprinted paper is used up, the instructions are mostly useless. The instructions are like "fold on line 4" which is only useful if you have the preprinted paper.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect gift idea, March 17, 1999

By A Customer

I gave this book to both my father and brother and they loved it. We have contest to see who can throw the planes the furthest. It was a good book to bring the family together.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic airplanes in a fun new format!, November 29, 1998

By	[e-mail] (Melbourne, Florida) - See all my reviews

I have had the priviledge of meeting Mr. Lammers and he told me of this new book idea, a book of miniature airplanes. I have been patiently waiting for his latest creation, the Pocket Fliers, and I am impressed with the outcome. I must say that it is the perfect stocking stuffer and I plan to give many of these unique books away as gifts this holiday season.
