And here is the miniature airport landing strip.
 Seven sections, each approx. 7” x 11.5”, can be cut and created from layered vinyl or paper in a configuration you choose. Duplicate the plain strip for a long runway, add the “threshold” and “target” strips at the beginning (where the plane touches down), and a “driveway” section so your plane can get to its hangar. Add a hairpin turn to join two runway lengths with the semi circle and angled left and right sections. Cut and apply vinyl to cut-to-size Masonite boards, sturdy chipboard or upholstery vinyl panels for hours of playtime fun. Use with toy planes, candy planes or the paper bi-plane from SnapDragon Snippts.

I got too excited sharing the Hot Air Balloon before sharing this Aviator Goggles to go with that awesome Realistic Fighter Plane...
Create the look of a vintage pilot with cardstock, eyelets, brads and other embellishments. Adjustable back strap with holes for brad attachment. Sized for adult.

Speaking of airplane themed party, how about these darling candy carriers?
Paper shapes wrap candy bars or pieces with wings, body and tail, with propeller and wheel shapes to add final touches. Large plane uses large Tootsie Roll as body, Hershey's almond chocolate bar for wings. Small plane uses “penny” candy size Tootsie Roll for body, gum strips for wings. Both use Lifesaver rings for wheels.
