  • What makes a good paper plane?

    • The value of a paper plane

    -

    A paper plane can model a real plane, with limited resources and with relative ease. Paper has a similar in-scale to weight to strength ratio of aluminium which real planes are made of.

    -

    During the Great Depression, designers used paper models to design planes that were later used very effectively by the Nazis in World War Two.

    During the Great Depression, designers used paper models to help design planes that were later used very effectively by the Nazis in World War Two.

    Initial designs

    Try to fold a paper plane and throw it. See who’s can fly well. Think about why certain designs might fly better.

    The classic design

    A different design

    John Collins designed the current world record plane for distance.

    Extension: more designs

    Check out https://www.foldnfly.com, the instructions are not perfect but there are quite a few planes.

    The loop plane is pretty good https://www.foldnfly.com/46.html#Loop-Plane
