A novel new notion! : a model plane "air mobile"

[t_tail_boy]

This can work for your very small scale model static aircraft for displaying them hanging and moving about with a gentle room breeze: please forgive the cheap Nikon Coolpix camera.

I can view model planes above the TV set while hopeful never watching the unfortunate news about aviation mishaps. I will eventually get some finer thread. some wire and some white paint and pretty up that mobile hanging display.

here's one for air traffic controllers ,
The nightmares -

I'm using dental floss right now. White thread might be too weak. Maybe the lightest-test monofilament fishing line.

I'd go for the mono-filet-mignon

I'd also suggest the fishing line.
It's what I've used to hang models for years

Otherwise, this looks to be an excellent idea

That gives Me an idea. I have so many 1/144 aircraft and not too much space. Thank You.

Here is the improved model airplane hanger painted in black and with hobby spools as height adjusters. Completed late 2020. 4-pound test mono now used. The spool adjusters allow for precise height, roll and pitch angles for the displayed aircraft models. Some of these jets look they are climbing and/or banking.

The Daron Toys planes are rather cheesy toys than precision scale models. The "landing gear" looks toy-like and not scale. The decals are not waterside and sealed under clear paint but rather typical sticky labels of a low grade found commonly on stuff bought at Walmart. The models have both die-cast metal and plastic parts.

These Daron Toys planes are actually 1/400 scale. I don't think hobby-grade models (assembled or kitted) are available that small.
