You don’t need to fold anything yourself, it’s more like putting your paper airplane designing skills and throwing skills to the test.

Paper Airplane Designs to choose form

First you need to built the best paper airplane ever. How to make a paper airplane online now is easy: you need to choose out of 3 paper airplane designs and specify :

• paper weight
• elevators and
• winglets

Once you have built your paper airplane, it’s time to practice (blue button right bottom) or to play (red button right bottom). Since I didn’t have anybody ready to play the paper airplane game, I started practicing. In order to throw a paper airplane record you need to play around with the paper airplane designs and with the strength you throw the paper airplane. Of course I tried out the full strength throw, yet that mostly is a bit too good to be true

After some practice my paper airplane record stands at 31.7m:

My paper airplane game record: 31.7m

Please play the game, take a screenshot and show us if you can break my paper airplane game record!

It’s great that you can now learn how to make an airplane just by watching a google video.

Although personally I still love the step by step method for showing people how to make a paper airplane. Well, I must be old fashion, just like the paper airplanes themselves

Have a look at this swallow paper airplane google video: a swallow is a typical paper airplane to make a paper airplane record with. Not that easy to built, so a video comes in quite useful.

Paper Airplane Record Rules

1. The aircraft must be constructed from one sheet of A 4 paper of less than 100 gsm.

2. The paper can be cut, but any piece of paper cut off cannot be rejoined.

3. The use of standard light-duty clear cellulose adhesive tape of width 25 mm and total length 30 mm is permitted on any one aircraft. The tape may be cut up into smaller pieces but shall be used to hold down folds only and shall not be layered, joined together, used as a weight, used for laminating a surface nor used as a control device such as a trim-tab or flap. Glue, paperclips or staples are not permitted.

Research on paper airplane

An idea from Jason Smith interpreting the paper airplane record rule number 2 that you cannot completely cut of a piece of the paper airplane and then re-attach it again!

Look at how to make a paper airplane without ever removing the tail from the plane:

Paper airplane record: how to keep the tail attached

• red lines are where the plane needs to be cut
• green lines are where
  the tail is folded
• the brown spot is the pivoting point for getting the tail into the plane. This brown dot is to the left as far as half of the tail’s width (a distance equal to the distance from one green line to the next).

There will most likely be excess paper on the side of the tail which is inserted into the plane:

• fold the paper over: this will add weight to the nose of the plane OR
• cut the paper: this prevents the additional weight from being added to the nose.

I do travel a lot by plane. That’s all easy to understand for grownups, but the kids in our family want to know why uncle always takes airplanes and why they cannot join?

I try to explain by words, but kids want to play

So I am setting up this website how to make paper airplanes. Each time I am on holiday, I will make sure I add one new paper airplane to this blog. That’s a good distraction if I cannot fall asleep in the airplane

Anyway, it’s a legacy of my father who was a real craftsman and made all our toys by hand: the amount of newspapers we changed into paper airplanes is kind of uncountable.

So father: this one is for you: how to make a paper airplane!
