ABSTRACT:
A flying toy is disclosed herein in which a conventional plastic shopping bag is converted into a flying device for amusement purposes wherein the toy includes a lightweight bag having an inlet opening for receiving ram air and an exhaust or exit opening for discharging air. A plurality of small holes is distributed in the bag to avoid suffocation in the event a child should inadvertently become entangled. Tethering strings are employed for manual control of the inflated bag as the bag is pulled through the air and an adjustable closure is provided at the inlet to change the inlet size for efficient flight. For kit purposes, a string reel is provided as well as an attachable message sheet and an inlet adjustable ring.
