I purchased a "Last Exit" 19-inch toy airplane glider at a Dollar Tree in Panama City Beach, FL. The plane is manufactured and distributed by Agressive Development Int'l Ltd, Hong Kong, China.
The plane is described as a glider called "Last Exit", has a 19" wing span, plastic launcher, aerodynamic shape and impact resistant nose. It comes with instructions on the back of the package explaing in 3 steps how to construct and fly the plane.
My complaint is simple: the glider DOES NOT FLY. It is basically a cardboard cut-out in which you slide the wing and elevator in place and then launch using a plastic handle and rubber band. It goes about 5 feet and drops like a rock. Hand launching it, the glider goes up to a height of about 8 feet and then falls like a rock out of the sky. It has absolutely no characteristics of a glider or plane flying. It flys more like 3 pieces of heavy cardboard that goes as far as you can through 3 pieces of cardboard.
I know it costs only $1.00, but it should do as advertised. It would be a better product if they sold a sheet of paper, with instructions how to fold and launch, for $1.00. They need to take this product off the shelf immediately.
