Park Flyers are small enough to fly in almost any open space near your home
such as football fields, parks, school gymnasiums or even a back yard.
These planes are also convenient to transport, fitting easily into a back seat.
They are capable of incredible slow-speed flight, giving first-time pilots
maximum reaction time and a head start toward success.
