This seems to me -- in its class -- a ""natural"". Every boy or girl interested in model airplane design will find it absorbing from the technical and factual viewpoint for the author has worked in an enormous amount of sound information which they will ""eat up"".

All of these aspects are touched upon in the book -- and the ""mystery"" is not too far-fetched to spoil the sound values of the text.
