Paper Plane Showdown: Tested Plans for Every Skill Level

We dove into How to Make Paper Airplanes with eager curiosity, hoping for clear, reliable instructions. Our initial planes, crafted from average printer paper, took flight with modest success—some soared gracefully while others tumbled unexpectedly. The book’s threading hole for throwing drones proved especially helpful, though we found the longer plane’s folds a bit fiddly for beginners. While some designs require heavier paper for stability, the variety ensures there’s something for every skill level. Our test proves it delivers a mix of techniques—simple for novices, advanced for enthusiasts. The step-by-step visuals are a plus, though a beginner might appreciate more practice tips. Overall, our planes performed well, though we’d love to see more troubleshooting advice. For now, it’s a commendable guide for anyone ready to launch into the paper airplane world.
