The Airplane Jumper Pendulum Wall Clock has a unique design with the parachutist being the pendulum and the rotating prop area as the clock. I certainly hope that biplane is a two seater or that plane is now flying itself. Made of hand painted resin.

Yeah, you could have been a fighter pilot, but why go through all that training when you can simply look the part by grabbing this ejection stool made from an original F-4 Phantom bucket seat and buddying up to the bar with beer and tales of things that never were? If you handle yourself well enough, the rush of Gs caused by the B.S. factor of your stories won’t hit until you end the night by passing out and wetting yourself. An additional design is pictured after the break.
I’m sure this is what the manufacturer of Continental radial engines had in mind when they designed and built these in the 30’s. Rather than powering an antique aircraft, this “pristinely restored ” engine is now available as a limited edition coffee table and conversation piece for your home, office or hangar with a nicely polished splined propeller shaft as your centerpiece. A limited edition stripped down Jacobs radial engine is also available with exposed pistons and crankshaft. A photo is available after the break.
Even though the F-117 Nighthawk has been retired, you can still pick up this giant 50″ x 61″ x 10″ model and display one of the coolest designs in aviation history. And, like most model enthusiasts, you’ll probably have to fight the urge to play with it like a child; pretending to launch little missiles while making obnoxious engine and explosion noises. Other aircraft models are also available, from the Fokker Triplane to the F-16. Additional photos are available after the break.
Think of all the fond memories of previous flights you have had. Missed connections, cancelled flights and trying to sleep in a sitting position. So of course you want to remind yourself of all that. You already have the pictures to remember your activities once at your destination, but not enough people celebrate the journey from hell that each normally feels like. It is even way overpriced to remind you of the fares you got as well.

Traditional letters and postcards are all but extinct thanks to e-mail. However, I would forgo technological progress this one time for a postcard that doubles as a flying balsa wood airplane. The only problem is that the way the post office works, this thing would probably arrive to you in splinters.

Make a nerdy fashion statement with your new belt made from an actual refurbished airline set belt buckle. While it may actually do it’s job as a belt, you have to admit you would look pretty foolish wearing it. That makes it an ideal gift for you to give to someone else. Show them how much you love them.

There are other ceiling fans out there that have the propeller as the fan. It is a logical design for a unique ceiling fan. But do those come with an applique that you can apply to the ceiling that picture the wings and fuselage? I didn’t think so, and that is why this is currently the king of the propeller ceiling fans.

You can make a coaster out of pretty much anything. These Airplane instrument Coasters are one more example, but one that seems a little more realistic and unusual. They look just like what you would see when you were flying a plane. At least in this case you wouldn’t need hundreds of hours of training to use them, though I still have friends that haven’t grasped the concept of using a coaster.

Meant primarily for chidren’s rooms, the Airplane light has a nice satin silver and frosted glass look to it. Not that you adults can’t have one also, I mean we all deserve a little bit of fun in our lives. But single people may have some trouble with dates if this were a primary feature in the living room, and I can’t believe most spouses would be any more interested. The choice is still yours.
