Like children, the aircraft sometimes feel fear towards the unknown and lack confidence in their abilities, but they always yearn for new adventures and discoveries, cherishing the friends they meet along the way. Through the entertaining and touching adventures of the aircraft protagonists, this series not only introduces the real characteristics of aircraft to children but also helps them overcome their fears, encouraging them to take the first step towards the future, bravely and confidently pursuing their dreams!

This edition marks the beginning of a captivating series centered around airplanes that conquer the skies. In collaboration with the renowned Antonov State Enterprise, responsible for designing globally recognized aircraft like Mriya and Ruslan, we have crafted stories that introduce children to real airplane features, such as skis or water tanks, through entertaining and heartwarming adventures.

Much like children, airplanes too can grapple with fear of the unknown and lack of confidence in their capabilities at times, but they are always eager for new adventures and discoveries, not to mention the friends they make along the way.
