I found this site on paper airplanes and decided that it was my sworn duty to provide all unicyclists with the ability and know-how to make the best paper airplane in the world.

Heh. Ages ago I had a book full of paper plane designs; it had that in it, and it was good.
However, I thought there was a better one… you started making it in a very similar way, but then instead of folding a cockpit and bends in the wings you made it into a boomerang shape thing with a slight bend in the middle. It was a little bit cheating, mind, because you needed scissors to cut the back of the wings to the right shape and a staple to hold the folded leading edge together, but hey.
It was ace! You could twist it slightly to make it turn, or throw it very gently and just watch it slowly cruise in the air for ages… but the best bit was hefting it towards the ground and watching it do loop-the-loops. If you threw it hard enough in a big enough room it could do two; if you did it off a ledge or over a larger space it might have done more.
It was great. It was called the “Paperang” in case anyone else has heard of it…

I used to make a similar plane, thanks for refreshing my memory.
Paper airplanes are pretty easy to make, but try making a paper glider. The idea is that all you do is drop it, maybe on an angle but its still only a drop, and see how far you can get it to go. We had to do this in my grade ninen tech class, we did some pretty cool stuff in that class. Built the tallest structure we could out of a piece of paper, built the strongest ten centimeter structure we could.
The best design was one that was basically a hollow tube with a medium width by about two centimeter length tube at the front and a wider one at the back.

Thanx for posting that.
My dad taught me to fold ‘the swallow’ many years ago, the start of this one reminded me of that one.
I built it today in maths and it flies perfect. I dropped it fron a 3 storey building and it flew about 100m.
However the Times on line, and Brit TV recently suggested that this is the ultimate design:
A TEAM of young scientists has created what they believe to be the perfect paper plane.
It can fly more than 100ft (30m) and remain aloft for about 20 seconds. Most importantly, it is easy to make. The plane, named Avenger, has been judged by academics to contain the ideal balance between complex aerodynamic principles and simplicity of design. Its looks may also have helped: the delta wing is reminiscent of Concorde.

However I once made a paper plane and threw it out of the 6th floor of the electrical engineering building at Salford University. It not only crossed the river, but was still gaining height and finally disappeared from binocular sight heading toward the CIS building. If anyone finds it, may I have it back please.
i found that same one a few years back, memorized the pattern, and make it all the time 
but the best plane that i’ve found is this one: http://www.omniwing.com/protoomniwing/ I was messing around one day with it and found that i had broken the world record for longest flight… too bad only one person besides me saw the time (plus i cleared the time)
Many thanks to ur post. I love it.

Yeah I went through a stage (2 weeks) where I was just nuts about making paper planes. I made this one. But does anyone know how to actually do bloody step number 18!!?!?!? (properly)
Sadly I cant make that paper plane:(
Although I can make a paper pelican off by heart 
I like Origami its pretty fun when your bored.(Oragami is the name of folding paper into different things,I think its a japanese word :D)
The shape of the Concorde’s wing is ti minimize drag at super-high speeds (it cruised at around 1350 mph). The Concorde flies like crap at low speeds; that’s why it needs its “droop snoot”. 
I haven’t tried looking this up, but I would assume such records are set under controlled conditions. Probably indoors, if possible. Otherwise you could have breezes, rising air currents, variations in temperature, etc.
I think I can, I just made this plane and I was pretty sure I did it right…but whenever I tried to fly it it wouldn’t fly far at all (it would go nose up, stall, and fall to the ground. I’m gonna try to make some adjustments with flaps and things.
This helped me a little, but i just had to mess around with it til i got it right.

But don’t ALL aeroplanes, not just Concorde, ( VTOL excepted) fly rather poorly at speeds low compared to their design cruising speeds? Try taking a 747 near to its stall speed and see how well its control surfaces work.
Nearing stall speed requires a high angle of wing attack. The drooped snoot was mainly required so that the pilots could see the runway over the long sleek nose when landing and taking off, at slow speed and therefore high attack angles. It didn’t improve slow speed performance, just let you see to park the damn thing…

I can do step 18 easily, as its a very easy and basic step in origami. Just keep messing with it, and look at some origami guides, cause that fold should be in there and youll get it.
Step 18?
Oh, come on. That’s just two rabbit-ears–learn to fold a fish base.
I don’t recommend the method used in the “detailed instructions.” That makes it too complicated. Just pinch and pull. It’s one step.
I like this airplane design, but it has a tendency to be unstable and is so weak that just a few flights will throw it out of balance.
That being said, it’s one of the few paper airplanes that I actually fold on a regular basis.
my dad learned me how to make that paper airplane 
mmmmm, gets out paper starts trying
10 minutes later.
&$%&!#@#^%!#@%)!!! rips paper in half
Try this:

It’s a basic fold. Don’t make it more complicated than it really is.
Fold the fish base a few times, and when you try it on the paper airplane you will be slapping yourself in the forehead for not getting it before.
