Paper Airplanes: How to Make and Fly Them

by David Mitchell

Bold and custom-designed, this squadron of paper airplanes includes models both simple and complex, from a basic glider (a particular favorite with bored children everywhere) to a jet fighter that soars straight and stall-free. The brightly illustrated, innovative, and detailed designs make construction easy for each part of the plane is tackled, starting with the body and moving on to the tail and wings. Plus, to add to the flying fantasy, there are tips on drag and lift for each one, and instructions on how to perform loops, dives, and other show-off stunts.
