Here are a few videos of some free flight planes at Geneseo which is where I will be going tomorrow (some of the videos are not great):
This one is cool in that they show how the rubber bands are wound and this plane takes off from water!

Mass Launches…these guys get into it by the end of the video.

And finally…I purchased this exact plane kit while at the Glenn Curtiss Museum. It is a Curtiss Sparrowhawk. This one is flown indoors and my son was impressed with the rubber band flight as seen in the video. I will probably look to build mine as an R/C electric rather than a free flight.
