5.0 out of 5 stars Wow is this thing fun!, November 20, 2008

By	Christopher J. Kratsch "Nougat" (Chicago, IL) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Durability:4.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars 

My son had one of these - but he was a little too young to get the hang of tossing it. So I would fly it ... and I couldn't stop.

First, you don't throw it, you just give it a gentle toss after starting the prop. Second, you'll want to tweak the rear elevator and rudder a little bit so that the plane gradually gains altitude while turning in a wide circle. Third, when they say you need to be in a big open field, they're not kidding.

We flew this a lot in the back yard, and it held up really well. The part that finally broke was the prop, after smashing into houses, and pavement, and playground equipment. The wing had a couple of dents in the leading edge - easily fixed with scotch tape. But don't be fooled - the prop is made of ABS plastic, and it's quite durable. It's just that when it gets bent a little bit, you really need to bend it straight again to get it to fly. Don't crash it into hard objects, and it'll last a lot longer.

Still, you'll fly this until it won't fly anymore. And it'll be worth every penny.

5.0 out of 5 stars Husband, teenager, and 6 year old boy enjoyed greatly, January 14, 2009

Durability:3.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars 

I bought this for my best friends son and my husband for christmas. They both enjoyed the air plane. I bought it from amazon for 14.99 so be careful because it can be sold as high as 75.99 by other retailers. It is a great toy!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good educational - a little frail, October 31, 2008

By	J. Ries "Reviewer" (CyberSpace) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Durability:3.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars 

The air engine works well and being clear plastic allows the user to see how it works - elegantly simple. The plane itself is styrofoam and not too durable. Fun while it lasts.
