How To Make Amazing Paper Airplanes

Learning how to make paper airplanes is not such a difficult task. It is a hobby that has been loved by generations of kids for centuries. If you want to create a paper airplane that soars high and far, take a moment to check out the following tips and guidance.

First of all you will need to understand there is a big difference between folding a piece of paper a few times to make a plane, and making the effort to create a craft that flies to the heavens. It is important that you use the right kind of paper, this needs to be strong and sturdy as opposed to flimsy and easy to crumple.

To get the aerodynamics right, you will need to work on a hard dry surface, for example a kitchen or dining room table. The folds need to be both precise and sharp without causing damage to the rest of the paper. Be aware that if there is any kink in a fold, the plane is not going to fly straight or far.

If you are determined to create a paper plane that flies higher and further than that of your friends, it can be useful to make pencil lines on the paper prior to folding. It is surprising the difference having geometrically precise folds can make on the plane's aerodynamics.
