The Ranger Plane - second vehicle invented by Gadget for the team.
The first time Ranger Plane appeared in a episode was "To the
Rescue pt.4" (#42), by replacing "Screaming
Eagle", which failured
when landing. The Ranger Plane was assembled from pieces of trash in
camp Klordane.
The basis of the plane is served by a plastic bottle with the removed
upper part. The plane is supplied by flapping wings actuated by a
mechanical drive, added action. The movement of wings is possible
both on the vertical, and the horizontal ("Three Men and a Booby") plane,
at the expense of high maneuverability of the machine is reached.
For simplification of weight of the plane, the rubber ball filled
helium serves. The plane is supplied the step-by-step chassis with
plungers of shock action admitting accuracy of a landing of the order
1/2 inches.
For the plane special take-off and landing strips are not required.
The Ranger Plane is suitable for use only in good weather conditions.
In conditions of a strong wind or thunder-storms the Ranger Plane is
suitable a little. Further because of the specified lacks the Ranger Plane
was replaced by the "Ranger Wing".
