Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages. I’ll definitely make another purchase soon! Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!

WONDERFUL book! Better than described, in just like new condition [not just good]. Packaged very carefully, shipped very securely. Great seller, would buy from again in a heartbeat! No communication occurred, but I imagine it would have been as good as the rest of their customer service. Very happy with purchase, thank you very much!

  • The book organizes the detail construction and flying tips for Model Planes

    This book is useful for those wanting to learn how to build and fly Flying Models, also known as "stick and paper" models. It is the second of two by the author Don Ross. He goes into great detail. This hobby is an "old" hobby in that when I was 8 or 9 years old, it was about all I could afford. There was no TV or anything to occupy my time in the evenings, so I built model planes. These books were not written then. So now, many years later I wanted to build some planes, but I felt I needed to relearn how to do it. I purchased Ross' first book, and enjoed it so much that I felt fortunate to be able to buy the second on E-Bay. I read it from cover to cover, and continue to use both books as references.
