Many people like to buy model airplanes not for themselves but to make a gift to sometone. This is exceptionally cool idea - one model aircraft is a really original gift. Depending on the aircraft type and the gift receiver it could be also educational or entertaining item. Let's see what kind of model airplanes are apporpriate for gifts and for what people:
Static model airplane: The static models are of very high quality and usually quite expensive. However they are not very exciting for children and teenagers. Static model airplanes are most apporpriate gifts for older people who have the habbit of placing beautiful items in their homes.
RC Model aircraft. The remote control airplanes are excellent gifts for kids over 8 ages, teenagers and even active young people. They are great toys and can give them a lot of enjoyment and long hours of nice play.
The free flight model airplanes are great for everyone and maybe the most appropriate gift for smaller kids. Because there is almost nothing to go wrong with them, you can safely let young children play. The free flight airplanes are of course a good gift for everyone else.
Kit model airplanes. The kits are for people who like to learn and build new things. You should be careful when choosing such model airplane as a gift - many people may not value it enough. But for those who love building things themselves, a model kit airplane can be one of the greatest gifts they have ever received.
The model airplanes are excellent gifts, just put some thought what exactly is most appropriate for the specific case.

Static Model Airplanes
The static model airplanes are luxury accessoires for people who like well touched things. As the name suggests, the static model aircraft does not fly. It just stays out there and makes your room, working cabinet or office looking great.
Most static model airplanes are made of balsa wood, but recently some appear made from plastic or even various metals. All static models should be painted well and should be exact copies of real world airplanes. That's why they are also called static scale models.
Many people start collecting models and then become passionate about building static scale models themselves. You should be very passionate, skilful and wiling to learn to make such models good. Keeping the right scale and building even the smallest details of the aircraft takes a lot of effort.
Most probably your first tries to make static scale models yourself will be disastrous. To avoid thta it's highly recommended that you start with model aircraft kit. Using a kit will save you from the hardest measuring work and working on the small details.
Static scale model airplanes and helicopters are very appropriate for gifting. Don't hesitate to buy such a gift even for people who are not very interesting in aviation - you may get surprised to see them buying their own models very soon after that!

How To Start Model Aviation?
Maybe you think model airplanes are cool and would like to collect or build them, but still have not decided, read this post.
Why Model Airplanes?
Because they are affordable and fun, they teach you great things about aviation, they help you develop great skills and they make you feel proud by your collection.
If you plan to build model airplanes from scratch, you'll need learn about aerodynamics, physics and aeronauthics. It will be a great experiences.
What's the best for beginners in collecting
Don't want to build models but just to collect? No problem. (Althought I bet after buying some you'll want to try building yourself!).
Start with buying cheap small models. Don't buy scale aircraft for the beginning - they are expensive and often hard to choose for beginners. A great way to start collecting is with RC aircraft or free flight models.
What's best for beginners in building
Start with paper airplanes! I am serious, they are not as simple as you may think. Paper airplanes can be pretty complex, beautiful and exciting.
The best of all with them is that building them is almost free - you can even use printed paper in the beginning and the web is full of free plans.
Once you advance...
Just think about the cool things that will come once you gain experience in this hobby. If you are only "collector" (and never wish to build which is very unlikely), you'll start buying great massive scale models or advanced RC aircraft.
If you are a builder, then even better: after gaining experience with the paper airplanes, you'll probably buy your first kit and build a free flight, RC or scale model yourself. Then you'll try building by just using plans. And finally you may even design your own flying model airplane completely from scratch!

Model Airplanes And Everything About Them
Do you have a hobby? Many of us have more than one hobby and that is great. One of my favourite hobbies is model aviation - a hobby in which you create or collect model airplanes and other aircraft.
Collecting model airplanes is not very expensive and is easy. Som,e of the model airplanes cost only several dollars. Of course there are more expensive models - especially the RC aircraft or static scale model aircraft.
Creating models yourself is more complicated, but don't be afraid. You don't need an university degree for that! The most appopriate way to start bulding model airplanes is with kits and when you gain some experience you can start with plans.
Some people create paper model aircrafts which are so cool that they may even look beter than wooden ones.
On this site I'll share a lot of my knowledge about model airplanes.
