Dmitri’s

7 STEPS — ~5 MINUTES — A4 PAPER

A simple paper airplane design and indeed a real classic. This plane is slightly more complex than the classic dart above but flies further and is more accurate. This design was sent to me by Dmitri through email and so I dedicate it to him on this site.

// HOW TO FLY

This is another classic design which Dmitri kindly showed me over email. It flies very well thrown hard or soft my main advice is to throw this plane parallel to the ground and not angled up or down when you throw it. Try adding flaps on the wings to get it to do stunts.
