The Fisher-Price Little People Fun Jet #183 debuted in 1970. With its bright red wings, blue engines, opening door, spinning "whirring" wheel, and pilot whose head turned as the plane rolled, it quickly became one of the most memorable vehicles in the Play Family line. Early 1970–1971 versions can be identified by the absence of a fuel hole in the wing. These features were added in 1972 so the Fun Jet could interact with the new #996 Play Family Airport and its fuel truck.  Today, the original #183 remains a favorite among collectors thanks to its classic design, long production history, and the distinctive differences between its early and later versions.
