Recently at the famous Oshkosh Wisconsin air show the experimental aircraft Association noted that many young pilots have Not been joining the Eagles Program like they had in previous years in record numbers. This is rather unfortunate and it means that kids are not interested in learning to fly. But if they are not interested in learning to fly where will we get our next generation of pilots and astronauts?
One thing parents can do to interest their children in flying is to get them started with the matchbox sky busters collection series. These are small diecast metal aircraft similar to matchbox cars but a little bigger and they have all different types.
Children Die-Cast Vehicles
You can get a FedEx plane, a jet fighter plane and they have airliners and helicopters. In this series there is also a Space Shuttle, racing plane, pontoon plane, private jets and general aviation aircraft. There are aircraft with swept wings, bi-planes, canards, high wings and low wings.
Often children develop a love of aircraft and flying at a very young age and if this is properly fostered we will have their next generation of pilots. Perhaps you will invest in some matchbox sky busters collection aircraft for your children? Please consider this in 2006.
