Do kids still build model airplanes, cars, ships? Or is it just old guys now? I'm thinking primarily of plastic kits, like I built when I was a kid, but also wood (for ships and balsa for planes) and/or metal, etc, etc. etc. I know there are a lot of Lego sets and Zoobs and magnent construction sets and so forth. Do kids build airliners (737, 777, A320, A380, etc) or jet fighters (F/A-18E, F-15C, Su-27, Harrier) or cars (Mustangs! New Beetles, Honda Civics)? Thanks.
Is a push or a pull propeller better for a model airplane? I'm going to attempt to make a design for a model airplane, then maybe try and build it.

Which one would work better? Why? Thanks!
Is this possible for an model airplane test? If I give all my model airplanes the same initial velocity, but they each have different wing angles (when looking down onto the plane, different angles to the body), could they have different speeds when passing a certain point?
