Offers instructions for making paper models from standard index cards.

In this book Kyong Hwa Lee combines the art of origami and the science of flight to create unique paper airplane designs for aviation enthusiasts of all ages. Featuring thirty-two designs, Amazing Paper Airplanes showcases models resembling real-world aircraft, including the F-22 fighter jet, a P-51 World War II plane, the Convair F-102 Delta Dagger—the first supersonic delta-wing interceptor airplane of the US Air Force—and more. For these models, Lee provides information along with an image of the real plane to encourage interest in aerospace technology. Every design has been flight-tested and presents complete step-by-step folding instructions. In addition to showing basic and advanced folding techniques and providing templates for each plane, the author explains the theory behind flight and offers tips to fine-tune paper airplanes for optimal flying.

These 8 aerodynamically sound, ready-to-build paper airplanes are blazing with color and ready to soar. Includes easy instruction for folding a Baker F-399 and X-411, Phantom, Daedalus, Icarus, Songbird, and more. All you need are scissors, glue, paper clips, a ruler, tape, and pennies to get them off the ground.

Take to the air with an array of paper gliders modeled after actual international jets. This kit holds all the "machinery" and all the instructions needed to build these replicas. * Great and Recreate high speed jets such as the Lockheed P-80 Shooting Star; the de Havilland Dh-106 Comet, designed for transport; the Airbus A310, with only two engines; and the beautiful Concorde SST. Plus, get ideas for displaying the gliders when they're "on the ground."

This complete guide to folding ten paper airplanes features step-by-step illustrations, along with trimming and tweaking tips that present basic principles of flight. Includes forty sheets of flight-tested, ready-to-fold paper, printed on both sides in a variety of twenty colorful patterns.

Trace the history of aviation by building your own miniature aircraft.
