Jet Hawk - MuseumTour Catalog - Educational Toys for children

Advice from the MuseumTour expert:
The Jet Hawk introduces basic principles of physics including the four forces in flight: weight, thrust, aerodynamic force, and lift and drag. This product is a fun way to get kids interested in the math and physics involved in the design and flight of rockets while simultaneously promoting physical activity.

It Takes Off Like a Jet Then Glides Like a Hawk.

The air-powered Jet Hawk is the wildest thing yet to soar into the wild blue yonder. A hand-held, air-pressure launcher sends this bird up like a rocket-as high as 500 feet. Upon reaching the apex of its flight, the Jet Hawk's wings pop open for a spectacular swooping glide back to earth. Made of sturdy foam for many successful flights.

Ages 10 and up.
Grades 5 and up.

The 2 problems with this jet hawk is the launcher button and the flight back to earth. My son pumped the pressure launcher but could not press the launcher button because it was too hard for him, my husband had to use both hands to launch this plane. My son and husband launched this plane 5 times and on the fifth try as the plane came down from flight the wing broke. For the so called spectacular swooping glide back to earth, it was more of like a dead duck falling back to earth. Not a good item.
