ABSTRACT:
A game, of the travel type, is disclosed wherein a square playing board has a course going around the periphery thereof, and the course is divided into a plurality of segments. The number of segments on one side is equal to the number of segments along each of the other sides. One of the corner segments is the starting place for play, and the other 3 corner segments represent havens or obstacles for the traveler (player). Alternate segments on each respective side are marked with geographical destinations, with segments therebetween marked with indicia, which the rules of the game provide direct the picking of either a flight or a landing instruction card. The flight and landing instruction segments also alternate. The game includes additional apparatus, such as a plurality of playing pieces simulating aircraft, flight instruction cards, landing instruction cards, and four playing pieces, which the players move around the board on the course in response to a chance device. The center of the board has indicia thereon so that a player can keep track of the number of aircraft he has in flight. Each type of aircraft is assigned to a particular geographical destination.
