Air Hogs is a line of toy airplanes, helicopters, rockets, and cars manufactured by the Spin Master company in Toronto, Canada. They are radio controlled, free-flying, and air-powered aircraft. Several of these, especially the R/C ones, are designed to be easily flown without any need for assembly.

Air Hogs was created in 1996 when Spin Master was approached by British inventors John Dixon and Peter Manning, whose prototype of a compressed air powered toy airplane had been rejected by everyone they had shown it to. Excited by the plane’s potential, Spin Master licensed the technology and spent two years and half a million dollars perfecting the toy.

The Air Hogs Sky Shark debuted first in spring 1998 and was an immediate hit, fuelled by coverage on The Today Show and Live with Regis and Kathy Lee, as well as write-ups in Time and Popular Science.

Follow-up successes have included Zero Gravity RC Wall Crawler (a radio control Hummer-style vehicle that can be driven up walls), the popular Aero Ace battery powered RC airplanes, Air Hogs Stormlauncher (a vehicle that can operate on land, water, and can fly), Havoc Heli (a 6.5” long indoor RC helicopter weighing just 10 grams) and the Reflex Helicopter (indoor/outdoor fully functional r/c helicopter). Later on, The Stinger is released. In 2008, the Havoc Heli and Stinger were released together in a Laser Battle Pack. A new toy has also been released: the SwitchBlade; a twisting blade with smaller blades that launches vertically but fly straight forward. Another popular radio- control airplane is the Hawkeye Blue Sky which was released in 2011. It is the only airplane Air Hogs has built with a built- in spy camera on (there are a few indoor helicopters that have them, but no other airplanes).

When Tom had flown to Dallas by himself, he was given this plane as a souvenir, and when the two decided to create a time capsule when they were kids, Tom placed the plane inside, and the capsule was buried on August 15th, 1989.

When Kate realized her mother was dying, Kate decided to return to her town and visit one last time, in doing so, she recruited Tom to assist her and buy some time alone with her. While they waited at night, the two returned to where they buried the capsule, and unearthed it. The two then listen to the tape, and looked at their childhood treasures. When Kate was stopped by a security guard in the hospital, she ran and was eventually stopped before exiting the parking lot by a Iowa State Trooper, she had no choice but to escape, and the officer fired, killing Tom. Kate left the toy airplane and fled once more.

Kate began calling Marshal Edward Mars at his home and began to taunt him, he eventually revealed that he had the toy airplane locked in a safe deposit box in New Mexico. Along with the help of Jason, Kate organized a bank robbery and regained access to the plane.

While in Australia, Kate was captured by the Marshall once and for all, and was taken on Oceanic Flight 815, and had the toy airplane placed in the Marshall's Halliburton Case along with 5 guns.
