WHILE Aviation has familiar markings of a standard Knowledge Adventure product, there is an important enhancement. Children can often consolidate what they've learned through craft products, and the eight year old, teenager or big kid will love watching 3D movies on how to transform sheets of paper into 12 very different planes.
Refreshingly the information content is high and balanced for all age groupings. There's three games to test avationial knowledge, including a trivia quiz, complete with snappy music and polished presentation. The only trouble is so much effort has gone into presentation that the designer omitted displaying correct answers when the responses were incorrect.
Aviation is drawn from two encyclopaedias on the history of flight, and humour is interjected admidst the hard fact. The Blooper Theatre includes video footage of flying blunders, with over the top commentary.
