ABSTRACT:
A flying saucer capable of skipping on fluids is provided. The flying saucer includes a conventional flying saucer disk having a substantially circular dome-shaped body and downwardly extending rim at the periphery of the body. A substantially circular insert is positioned inside the rim proximate the interior surface of the dome-shaped body. The insert has a lower surface substantially flush with the lowest edge of said rim and the lower surface of the insert is provided with at least one recess which may be grasped to facilitate throwing the saucer. When the insert strikes a fluid surface such as water or snow as the saucer lands, the saucer skips on the fluid surface.
