Making Paper Airplanes doesn't feel like science. And it's not quite art. Near as we can tell, it's magic. Paper Airplanes fly because of good, old reliable physics. We present here a complete guide to folding aerobatic amazements. The ten airplanes in this book are the best we've ever seen: easy to make and flight-ready under all conditions.

Description

Making paper aeroplanes doesn't feel like science. And it's not quite art. Near as we can figure, launching a regular old piece of paper into the sky so that it soars is pure magic.

We present step-by-step instructions for folding aerobatic amazements. The ten aeroplanes in Book of Paper Airplanes are the best we've ever seen.

This book comes complete with 40 sheets of flight-tested, ready-to-fold paper, printed on both sides in a variety of 20 colourful patterns—including leopard print, wood grain, hot-rod flames, and lose-it-on-the-lawn grass.

It's everything you need to rule the skies!
