There's little more than a month to go before Christmas and while most people know Santa doesn't travel by airplane, try telling an aviation enthusiast that!If you've got a brother, sister, mum or dad that is mad about all things aviation, then maybe you should think about the following gifts this Christmas.Small gifts.Even if you don't follow the same interest as your gift-receiver, you should still find out what their favourite airplane is.Aviation has had some absolutely fascinating engineering conquests in its time, from the incredibly large modern A380 commercial Airbus to the legendary Spitfire - which played a crucial part in the Second World War.You can easily get replica scaled-models of these planes from many outlets and toy shops that will sit well on any shelf.For a puzzle enthusiast you can also get an array of aircraft.Finally, for younger persons or children you could even get them an Airfix or Lego kit so they can have a go at building their own aircraft!Technological gifts.The internet has given us many cool new tools in which to play with, as have mobile applications.Flight radar trackers are a type of app that allows its user to monitor an aircraft's movement whilst in the sky.It displays handy information such as the flight number, airline, registration, altitude, speed, course and route.Alternative gifts.If you really want to go big and you can afford it, then there's got to be nothing better than a flight in a dream aircraft for an aviation enthusiast.You'd actually be surprised at what you can get today, again with the help of the internet.Alternatively, you could sign them up for a membership with a fan club where there'll no doubt be opportunities to visit museums and other attractions throughout the year.This makes it a gift that isn't just for Christmas, but long after too.
