overtaking vehicle the disengagement of the fuselage from the chassis 15 may be enhanced by inserting an optional spring 29 shown in broken lines in fig2 which is compressed when the fuselage is frictionally or magnetically held to the chassis in alternate embodiments fuselage 12 may be replaced by a toy auto or truck body or by any other releasable member which is freed from the supporting chassis by a camming action similar to that described in connection with fig1 4 in yet another alternate embodiment illustrated in fig5 fuselage 12 is hinged at 30 to chassis 15 element 32 is a latch and spring combination similar to latches found in many low cost ball point pens that is if push button 34 is pushed once the fuselage is latched to the chassis 15 in a normal position fig2 if pushbutton 34 is pushed a second time fuselage 15 is released from the chassis when the fuselage is released spring 36 causes fuselage 15 to swing on the hinge 30 to a 34 shot down 34 position after the vehicle is 34 shot down 34 the child manually pushes the body down over the vehicle chassis thereby operating pushbutton 34 and again latching the body in position any of many different means may be provided on the other airplane to engage button 34 such as a bumper not shown protruding laterally from the.
