We think Whitewings are the best gliders in the air, and these multi-craft kits combine the best of the best. The "Early Gliders" is their Milestones set of (6) historic flying machines: the Wright Flyer; the 1893 Lilienthal glider; the Bleriot X1; the Ryan NYP (Spirit of St. Louis); the Lockheed Vega; and the Douglas DC-3. The "Modern Gliders" comprises the Messerschmitt ME 262, the Bell X-1, the Boeing 367-80, the Air Force North American X-15, the Hawker Siddeley XV-6A Kestrel, and the Rutan Voyager. All are based on the real things that are on display at the Smithsonian. These are approx 10" long with a 12" wingspan, made in card stock and balsa, with a rubber-band launcher and a good 40pp manual.
