Abstract

The invention described herein represents a significant improvement in the entertainment of vehicle passengers. It comprises an aircraft that is tethered to, towed by, or otherwise movably affixed to a passenger vehicle. The aircraft includes remotely controlled surfaces and locomotion elements that enable it to be flown by a vehicle passenger on wind created by the movement of the passenger vehicle. Elements of the system include a passenger vehicle, a passenger, an aircraft, controlled surfaces on the aircraft, a remote controller, a wind powered generator, and various emitters of electromagnetic energy including lights, toy lasers, and electric display to display information such as sport team logos for occupants of other vehicles to observe. The aircraft is constructed with a soft low abrasion exterior so as not to damage or scratch the passenger vehicle upon which it is towed.
