  • Patent number: 6695666
    Abstract: A flying disk toy is provided with a streamer, windsock or the like for aesthetically enhancing the visual effect of the flying disk toy while in flight with minimal interference to its flight aerodynamics. The flying disk toy is in the form of a substantially disk-shaped body having an outer rim, a generally convex top surface, a generally concave bottom surface, and a central axis about which the body rotates when the disk toy is in flight. The streamer includes a leading end and a trailing end. The streamer may be illuminated while the disk toy is in flight. The streamer may also be positioned such that its leading end is adjacent to the outer rim of the disk body. If a hanger arm is employed to attach the streamer to the disk body, the hanger arm can be mounted in an anti-friction bearing position in the top surface of the disk body, whereby the hanger arm and the streamer are rotatable relative to the disk body.
