Electronic Paper Plane Catapult Launches Your Aircraft at 50KPH
The idea of using steam powered catapults to propel aircraft from the decks of ships was first devised by Commander Colin Mitchell of the Royal Navel Volunteer Reserve and was first trailed in 1950 – whereas this electronic paper plane launcher made by Willow Tree Toys, wasn’t.
Operationally, the device is a fairly simple/cheap/crass though fun affair, with two plastic wheels powered by a motor serving as the launch platform catapulting your paper F/A-18s into the air at thirty miles an hour – of course if you’ve folded a Sea Harrier out of a page of A4 this device is wholly redundant.
Great as a gift for a young relative who may well grow up to repeat the exercise in real life, thus potentially plunging us into World War Three (only to blame it on a the influence of a long lost/nuked relative), the Electronic Paper Plane Catapult retails for $15.95.
