When I was four years old, my dad stayed up all night building me a 1/72 scale model of a Boeing 707. I remember the decals - it was in Eastern Airlines livery.

The next day I spent hours tossing it down our carpeted hallway, trying to make it land straight. The landing gear snapped off first.

My only other memory of the incident is of the baby sitter using elmer's glue to try to fix it.
