Flex & Fly Plane Launcher

Bend, launch, and glide into the physics of flight! Build a launch lever that will send planes soaring, then put together a spring-powered runway for high-speed takeoff. Prepare your plane fleet, then bend and pose the wings to see how different angles (and airfoils!) affect your flight path. Ready to wing it?
