This is the Guillow’s PAUL K. GUILLOW, a lightweight balsa wood glider that assembles in seconds — slot the balsa wings and tail into the fuselage and it’s ready to launch, no glue or building required.
It’s a backyard and park classic for kids and casual flyers, hand-launched for long glides or catapulted for altitude. It’s inexpensive enough to keep a few on hand for a summer afternoon.
Guillow’s (Paul K. Guillow, Inc.) has been making balsa wood airplane kits in Wakefield, Massachusetts since 1926.
