Summary: People need to read the package and stop inferring...
Review: Everybody is bashing this calendar because of the limited number of models, but on the box it says 6 DIFFERENT MODELS. Learn to read people. The title is not 365 DIFFERENT TINY AIRPLANES! If you feel misled, you have nobody to be mad at but yourself for not reading the packaging (unless you have yet to conquer the art of reading for content). Come on now people....THINK!!!!!

Summary: 6 Airplanes not 365
Review: Got this calendar for a gift, and after many years of comics I thought this would be a great change. Written by Ken Blackburn & Jeff Lammers, authors of 'the best selling WORLD RECORD PAPER AIRPLANE BOOK series, I imagined that we would have a book with every type of paper airplane imaginable. Oh how wrong I was. I got through the first week and upon looking at next realized that it was going to repeat the same 6 planes over and over again. Argh. The absolutely worst calendar ever.

Summary: You will be hard pressed to find someone satisfied with this
Review: I saw this calendar a few weeks ago and was excited to have a change from my usual 365 days of duct tape calendar this year. I have gotten through day 5 when I realized that all they did was reprint 6 calendars over and over again. What a rip off. Less than a week into the new year and Im bored of my calendar already. I agree with the previous review that 365 airplanes is quite a task, but these guys have written entire books on paper airplanes. They couldnt have found more than 6? Even 12 month calendars have to come up with at least 12 ideas. I plan to send an email to the creator once their website is up and running again (it probably came crashing down when everyone found out there were only six planes and flooded their server). But to everyone out there, avoid this calendar

Summary: Great for a young child, adults will be disappointed.
Review: I'm not sure why the description of this calendar says it may be fun for the office, the average adult will be disappointed. I have to admit the "365 Tiny Paper Airplanes" is greatly misleading. Ya' get six. Yup six. Now, my six year old, whom this was purchased for, thinks this is heaven. He's happy to fold the same six over and over. It's a good learning tool to keep track of the name of the day, month, year....if you're six.
But, sorry guys, you misled us on the fun factor in the office. Couldn't you at least have found 12 different designs? You know like the twelve months of the year?

Summary: Finally, something to do once it's tomorrow...
Review: Once you get past all the people whingeing about "omg there are only 6 designs!!!" this calendar turns out to be a lot of fun. The designs work well; some are more challenging to fly than others, but all of them fly reasonably well (as long as you take the effort to fold them properly.) The designs range from abstract geometric shapes, to clip-art, to images that become airplane shapes when the folding is complete.

Be aware that you'll probably _need_ three hundred, because once you throw them over the cube wall into your co-workers' offices you'll never see them again. (For some reason my dog loves to go after them as well, which is hard on the planes as the paper is soluble in dog spit.)

I often have trouble convincing myself to wait until five PM before folding the plane. In fact, I'm already looking forward to getting one for 2006...

Summary: 365 days / 6 paper airplanes = 61 of the same thing
Review: This product is misleading. The calendar is called "365 Tiny Paper Airplanes", implying that you get joy of making a different paper airplane every day of the year. Imagine my surprise when I discovered that the calendar consists of only 6 different paper airplane models that are repeated in a continuous cycle from January 1st thru December 31st. What a let down!

I can understand that it might be a bit of an endeavor to design a full 365 distinct models, but I've got to believe there are more than 6 paper airplane types in the world. At least they could have included a whole month's worth (30) or even a full weeks worth (7) of models?!?!

Needless to say I am very disappointed in this product and would only recommend it to those suffering from short-term memory disorder.
