High-flying paper airplanes
From the Concorde to the Stealth Bomber, these more than 35 great-looking, superbly aerodynamic paper craft look amazingly like the actual planes, helicopters, and gliders they're modeled on. And, along with this easy-to-follow and well-illustrated manual, all you need to construct them are paper, some basic origami folds, and a few everyday supplies such as a pencil, glue, scissors, and tape. True to its name, the Simple Jet is so uncomplicated to make, it's worth creating an entire fleet in different colors. The Arrow-head flies fast and true; decorate its huge wings with personal insignia. Try experimental planes, such as the Grumman A-6 Intruder; stunt flyers, including the Avro Vulcan, especially made for performance flights; and many other exciting craft.

Miss Mouse takes off
My trip, by me, Miss Mouse Hi! I'm going on an airplane trip with my best friend. It's so exciting! First we go to the airport, and I get to ride through the X-ray machine. Whee! Then the plane takes off and we go tip and up and tip above the clouds. You'd be surprised at all the things there are to do on an airplane!
