Publisher's Synopsis
This combination book and model kit taps into kids' enduring interest in airplanes by bringing them into the hangar for a tour of how planes work, and then into the planes themselves for a pilot's eye view of what it's like to soar. Clear explanations of concepts like the law of motion are here, along with discussions of flying pioneers. But how about actually creating a plane? This book comes with all the parts needed for assembling actual flying airplanes even a battery-powered propeller winder! Kids learn to build a jumbo jet, a sleek and sporty private aircraft, a fighter jet, and a sturdy bush plane.
