How do we do this? We use a derivative of Einstein's success formula,
Work + Play = Success. Here we expound on the play
portion by using the idea of
Watch an Airplane
Movie plus Build
a Model plus Go
to an Air Show equals An
Educated Family with a greatly improved understanding of aviation and technology
and a much better chance of future success.
Here's an example. Watch an airplane movie about the F-16 such as,
Iron Eagle. While you are watching TV, build an F-16 model. Then go to an air
show where there are real
F-16 airplanes flying. What Happened? You just watched
a great airplane movie and had an enjoyable evening. At the same time, you
have just built
a beautiful F-16 Falcon model which you will keep forever with the deep pride
that you have built it. Next you have seen a fantastic air show, and I mean
fantastic, and have spent a family day together. Did you have fun?
Did you learn a lot? Did you spend quality time with your family?
You bet! And you can do all of this by visiting Yellow Airplane!
We also cover airplane books, lots of airplane movies and all kinds of hobby
shop model airplanes. We love aviation history and have aircraft models of
the historic planes. Recently we have added
electric trains and
model
trains plus night vision equipment,GPS Systems which cover other hobbies.
We also have many exhibits showing military and
civilian aircraft. Exhibits that
show everything form homebuilt aircraft being built, to trips on the
USS Kitty
Hawk and even expeditions to both the
North Pole and
South Poles.
So look around this super hobby store and enjoy yourself looking at both hobbies
and exhibits.

The Exciting Story
of
building the
B-24 Liberator Bomber Warren Benjamin
Kidder (Ben) was the last man to live on the Willow Run property before
his house was torn down for the factory construction. He has done
a tremendous amount of research on building the Willow Run Plant and the
B-24. The book is one of the best that I have ever read and you can
see a large exhibit here with lots of great photos of the
B-24 Liberator construction plant in World War 2. Exhibit Added Feb 2000
