This post got me thinking about being a kid again. I was ALWAYS flying something, whether balsa planes, RC planes, U-Control planes, kites, homemade hot air balloons, water rockets or model rockets. I did a search of American Junior Aircraft and looked at a few sites. Those were not the planes I recall buying/flying. I kept looking and came across this site:

The brand I bought the most of was North Pacific. I'll bet many of you remember these as well. I also recall buying/flying folding wing balsa planes, but it wasn't the American Junior or North Pacific brand. I've yet to go through all the companies on the above site, so I may find it yet. Now that I know the name brand of the planes I flew, I'm going to have to see if I can find some on eBay. Tami will love that I found something else to collect. hehehe
