While this model airplane kit is decidedly modern in design, surprisingly it dates from the early years of aviation innovation in Japan. The Hishou is an A-shaped plane with two reverse propellers. The design dates from 1911 when three A-shaped models successfully crossed over the Sumida River in a flight contest. This kit uses balsa wood, ultra light Styrofoam, rubber bands and 5 inches reverse pitch propellers. It has a wingspan of 16 inches and overall length of 18 inches. Complete illustrated instructions and glue are included.

This plane is nothing like I expected. I expected a much better-made product. I doubt if this plane will last long enough for my grandson to get it home and hang it from his ceiling.

I gave my husband this as a birthday gift. He is a lover of things Japanese and a history devotee, so this was perfect. He's also putting it together with my daughter and they're taking it flying. An excellent choice for a family project.
