Wally making his first flight. (above) Notice the details from the artist drawing to Wally Himself. (below) Wally front paddles (fins) are able to move though a pulley system inside the basket. This makes him appear to be swimming though the skies.
Picture to the right. Wally at Marcos's home in Brazil. Note the orange tree next to the basket.
