Aquila (Galaxy Children's Large Print) - Softcover
It's been buried underground for seventeen hundred years. It's been found by two schoolboys. They have no idea where it came from or what it does. But Geoff has discovered that when you sit in it these coloured lights come on.

From AudioFile:
What if you were 12 and you stumbled across a wonderful flying machine that could do anything, including cloaking itself and you in invisibility? You'd do exactly what Jeff and Tom, a pair of underachieving British schoolboys, do in Aquila. You'd keep it a secret from the adults who would certainly take it away from you. Brian Cant gives a crisp British read to this tremendously likable story of two junior high students, who, stuck without an owner's manual for the good ship Aquila, find that only such long-avoided disciplines as physics, Latin, and geometry can give them the answers they need. So much fun, you don't mind the message about the value of learning. M.C. (c) AudioFile, Portland, Maine
