Review: Great Plane for the Price! - Great airplane! Flies great, and lands smoothly. It usually glides for a second after rubber band runs out which helps it land. Some parts like the rudder, elevator and cockpit had to be glued so they don't move around. This particualar plane can be modified easily and even be flown tethered with special modifications, but for that you will need a different rubber motor for longer flight, and a tether, which can be made from things at home. It is not very durable though, so it may break if it hits something hard, but it is easy to fix with wood glue and it usually lands smoothly. For short, it is a great plane for it's price, and works great. Your kids will absolutely love this!
Review: balsa wood airplane with landing gear - These planes are super lightweight (balsa wood) and won't last for long - but while they do, they are FUN. My 8 year old grandson had a blast. He wound it up, set in down on our sloped driveway and it actually took off from the ground with the wheels! These are very delicate and only lasted a couple of days, but my husband enjoyed the nostalgia of playing with them and introducing this 'old style' fun to our grandsons.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is it made in the USA?**
A: Yup! Mine was anyway.

**Q: Is this price for one plane or for 18?**
A: The one I bought was 4.69usd. Thats for only 1 plane.

**Q: can this take off from the ground?**
A: No. Although it will move on a hard surface, it will not take off like a real plane. To get it to fly you have to throw it like you would a paper airplane.

**Q: How long is this plane - I need one that is a foot long for a competition.**
A: The plane is exactly 9 inches long. My grandson loves it...but it's not a foot long.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ balsa wood airplane with landing gear

### ⭐ 2 out of 4 arrived broken. Amazon won't allow a request for replacements
*by S***H on December 9, 2013*

I ordered 4 of these balsa wood planes. Two arrived damaged. In fact, enough pieces were broken that I was unable to salvage a single working plane out of both kits. Amazon does not offer a replacement, but instead offers a refund if I RETURN the planes. Seems rediculous, given that this item is so cheap it was being sold as an "add-on" item in the first place. I am not going to UPS these back. Amazon - how about you do a better job of monitoring the other sellers who you represent on this website. I would like two replacement planes sent out with no shipping charges. I will send you a photo of your broken merchandise if you'd like.
