What is Pigs might fly about?

The three little pigs are back, and this time they are entering the Pie in the Sky Air Race. Each pig builds a flying machine from a different material: straw, sticks and metal. But the Big Bad Wolf is determined to beat them and takes to the skies in hot pursuit. When he leaps onto the pigs’ plane, the cleverest pig fires up a rocket booster. The pigs soar over the finishing line, while the wolf is sent spinning into the blue yonder.
