Soooo pleased with these gliders!
I'm organizing a 'game night' for all ages at church. Back in the 70's I remember flying balsa planes over the creek in Beaver Park, Cedar Rapids Iowa as a family. I thought how fun it would be to have our church kids compete with gliders. I read lots of reviews. First off, many foam and balsa planes simply don't fly. Secondly, even if you pick a brand that does fly, many companies don't pack them protectively and they arrive broken. I read that Pilots HQ ships them very carefully, so I took a chance that once they arrived all 7 would be useable. They came in a cardboard box for protection and inside they were wrapped in bubble wrap. A bear would have had to sit on the box to damage the planes! I know balsa is fragile, but I was VERY careful in punching out the pieces and assembling them. I remembered that it doesn't take much 'push' to get the gliders going. It's -10 outdoors, so I just set it sail in the living room. It flew like a champ until it crashed into my La-Z-Boy, but it survived that gentle crash without breaking. I can't wait for our game night at church! Thank you for providing a quality product at a fair price!

Amazing memories
I am going to purchase a couple for my friend son.
I remember theses planes when I was a kids. A lot of good times in the 60’s.

Just like I remembered as a kid
I remembered how much fun I had with these gliders as a child and it was a joy to watch my 5 and 7 year old grandsons having a blast with them. I bought several for each of the boys , because I remembered the gliders were somewhat delicate. These gliders are great.

Great value
I'm excited my order of 25 Boeing gliders arrived timely and undamaged. The gliders will serve as prize for children completing a scavenger hunt associated with our neighborhood block party.
I work on old vintage motorcycles, most of which have a fair amount of oil and grease on the engine and transmission parts. These gloves are so much better than the run of the mill cheapo's that can be bought about the same price. Yes, these will tear like any nitrile glove, but these are very, very durable and do a very nice job of standing up to gas, oils, and brake cleaner. I've yet to find any better than these for the price. No complaints whatsoever.
I took the chance of ordering expired Loctite 330. It was jelled up pretty good and generally unusable. It was my fault for trying it and never called the company to complain as I took the chance and that is on me. Order the good stuff.
Had used aviation Camguard for years. Added as well to each quart of oil added to my Lyc 540 SIA5 aerostar engines. Went past TBO with excellent compressions. Oil analysis always normal.
Also add to automobiles but too early to see a benefit.
