Ultralight Airplanes from Thames & Kosmos is the ultimate glider airplane kit for the airplane enthusiast! Build five experimental gliders while learning about the physics of flight. The gliders are constructed of sturdy wood and plastic parts that are fully adjustable for flight experimentation. The guide explains the different parts of an airplane, how the wings provide lift, and even encourages flight experimentation between the different gliders.

The kit includes more than 40 pieces, plus a full-color, 16-page manual. You provide a "test flying" area at least 10 meters long. Ages 8+.
