Wondering what to buy your favorite avgeek for Christmas? Do you have someone to shop for who loves history or airplanes or loves to travel? You've come to the right place. PlaneTags has you covered, and with our Black Friday sale this year, many of our best selling PlaneTags are discounted.
What are PlaneTags?
PlaneTags are small pieces of authentic aircraft skin, which have been removed from a decommissioned plane then cut into an oval shape. Each one is laser engraved with a drawing of the plane it comes from, the name of the plane, its registration or tail number, and its number in the series. Each PlaneTag is attached to a display card which tells more about the plane and its history. They can be customized on the back to make it a truly personal and touching gift.
And why do PlaneTags make the best gift for an aviation enthusiast?
PlaneTags can be:
- Collected individually
- Collected as a set
- Used as a luggage tag
- Used as a keychain
- Displayed on a PlaneTags rack or other display

Who are PlaneTags for?

Fairchild C-82 Packet: The Forgotten Twin-Boom
Before the Flying Boxcar became a military workhorse, Fairchild’s engineers built an ambitious twin-boom transport that paved the way for it. The Fairchild C-82 Packet was a postwar cargo aircraft that promised big things but struggled to live up to them. Although it served for only a few short years, it played an important role in shaping the aircraft that would follow. Today, the legacy of one particular Packet, serial number 44-22991, lives on through MotoArt PlaneTags, preserved from the legendary Soplata Collection.

For more than 70 years, the Boeing B-52 Stratofortress has symbolized power, endurance, and innovation in the skies. Born from the Cold War’s demand for a global-range bomber, this legendary aircraft continues to serve generations later. MotoArt now honors that enduring legacy with handcrafted B-52 Coasters, made from authentic aircraft aluminum sourced from Dave Hall’s Mojave boneyard collection. Each coaster is a tangible piece of aviation history, reimagined for collectors who appreciate timeless craftsmanship and the story behind every rivet.
