DESIGNS // 22 AIRCRAFT
⭐
The Swallow
My father’s design from the 1960s. Throw it straight up and watch it swoop and dive like a real swallow.
Classic Dart
The one everyone knows. Simple, fast, and surprisingly effective.
Origami I
A beautiful pure origami design — no cuts, no tape, just folds.
Origami II
Another elegant origami design with a wider wingspan for graceful gliding.
Origami III
The most advanced origami variant — complex folds, stunning flight.
Lightning
Named for its speed. A sleek dart that flies fast and straight.
Sabretooth
Flies fantastically thrown straight up or as a normal glider.
Cobra
My own design — flies straight and fast, amazing to watch.
Trapezium
An unusual shape that flies surprisingly well. Great for experiments.
⭐
Nick’s Plane
My favourite design of all time. Nick sent this to me and it flies beautifully.
Flying Fish
One tricky fold but flies brilliantly in a straight line.
Rapier
A narrow, fast dart. Point and shoot.
Dragon
My own design — flies fast and level for 30 metres.
Floating Plane
A gentle glider that floats slowly through the air.
Nose Heavy
Designed to be front-heavy for a fast, stable flight.
Napkin Plane
Made from a napkin. Perfect for restaurants when you’re bored.
Edmonton Shadow
A wide-winged glider with a distinctive silhouette.
Dmitri’s Plane
Sent to me by Dmitri — a clever design with great range.
⭐
Paper Blimp
A slow, floaty design that drifts through the air like a blimp.
Paper Frisbee
Not a plane at all — throw it like a frisbee and watch it spin.
Paper Helicopter
Drop it from a height and watch the blades spin as it falls.
Paper Rocket
Wrap it around a straw and blow — launches like a real rocket.
