OK, this IS Joe related since I used it as a Joe plane. Here goes:
It was a yellow plane with a white belly. It had propellars on both wings and they were operated by a trigger handle near the rear (on the bottom). There was a lever on the top that activated landing gear and there was enough room for 1 Joe to sit in the cockpit with a little area behind the seat for weapons. I think it might have been made my Matel, and part of their Fisher Price Adventure People series, but I can't find ANY info on it (other than memories). I know I can't be the ONLY one here that had this as a kid! I have looked EVERYWHERE for information on this since I started collecting again in 1998. Everytime, I have come up empty handed. Please guys, if any of you know something about this plane, tell me. And if any of you HAVE it, please sell it to me! This plane is like the Holy Grail of my childhood. My mother threw it away (way back when) because she said it was broken. Please help me avenge my loss! :( |

What year were you born? How old were you when you had it?
This extra info could help someone figure it out (hopefully.) |

I WISH I had more info on it, other than the fact that I am about 90% sure it was from the Adventure People line. I was born in 1978 and probably got the toy around 1984 (?) from a yard sale across the street from my grandmother's house. It looked (from the other pics I've seen of 1970 styled Adventure People vehicles) to be from the 1970's, though I'm not sure what year. I'd think that it would be from closer to 1980 because it seems like the vehicles became more complex around that time.
I'm glad to know that I'm not the only person here that remembers it. BTW, please help me find it... |

This does not match up what you described either but take a look. It's an older auction.
