Are your paper aircraft models not flying well? You've followed the instructions in your paper plane book but nothing works, so what's happening? There are plenty of paper aircraft books out there, but few instruct you how to fold correctly let alone explain how to throw particular types of paper plane models. This guide complements any paper aircraft book by explaining the best techniques for folding correctly and flying well.
Basic flight theory is included. Follow the folding and throwing guidelines, build the test glider at the end of the book, practice throwing and throw to perfection by observing the throwing techniques and trajectory tips. In no time you'll soon realize you can make any well-folded paper plane fly well! This book about throwing tips complements any paper aircraft book such as Klutz or Best Advanced Paper Aircraft.
- Introduction
- Before You Start Throwing - tips on folding, symmetry, scale and types of paper
- Basic Flight Theory - air resistance, yaw, pitch, roll and more
- Throwing That Perfect Plane - gliders, darts, loopers, circles
- Trajectory Secrets - finding the right 'attitude' for that perfect throw
- Test Glider Instructions - a long distance glider design for your experimentation
This is a newly updated and improved edition (Formerly The Paper Aircraft Dossier) provided for general paper aircraft enthusiasts, as well as competitors.
