TECH NOTES

                  Academy Plastics.  It's for ages 10 and up.

     When the Japanese attacked the United States in 1941, the most modern
fighter in the Navy was the Grumman F4F Wildcat.  Although the Wildcat was
small, it was not as fast or maneuverable as the Japanese Zero Fighter, but it
was a very durable machine.  However, in the hands of an experienced pilot,
the Wildcat could best the feared Zero.  Thankfully, the Grumman fighter was
able to fend off the enemy until the more powerful Hellcat was available about
one year later.
