No Noise Pollution In New Toy Plane F.vcr since the Wright Brothers realized mans dream of Most advanced toy planes have been the miniature powered, manned flight, ngined, air- both real and miniaturcaptured youngsters' imagination. Play flight toys have evolved from paper and wood planes which are still popular and common, to more sophisticated flying miniatures.

A recent toy flight breakthrough combines the virtues of engine power, safety and ease of operation to finally provide introan exciting, duction to model airplanes for youngsters. A new SuperStar Sky Riser play flight plane from Mattel, molded from styrofoam, features a power module electric motor charged by a simple battery. It is so quiet, it is in compliance with e ordinances enacted by many communities to combat the nuisance of conventional model planes. d pre-tee- n light-weig- six-vo- anti-nois- gasoline-e- remote-controlle- d type toys. But these have been wanting in elementary safety standards and ease of operation with their volatile gasoline fuel and sophisticated engines and controls which confine use to fathers and older youngsters. The SuperStar Sky Riser provides powered flight with safety and simplicity without the danger and mess of gasoline. The plane can take off from the ground by itself. It starts instantly, taxis smoothly and moves out for fast takeoffs. A youngster trims the tail rudder as he wishes, and the Sky Riser h with its wing span flies in big or small circles. The accidentally styrofoam body, damaged, is easily repaired with transparent adhesive tape. The Wrights were right on with their cumbersome flying machine, but there are some youngsters around who might wish they could challenge them on flying ability now that Super-Sta- r is here. 26-inc- Cool Salad Is Right For Summer Try Cabbage Potato Salad for great summertime eating.
