Book Description
Paper airplanes as serious science? No longer shamefully relegated to the back rows of elementary-school sports stadiums, paper airplanes come into their own with this amusing -- and instructive -- book. The Great International Paper Airplane Book documents the proceedings of the first (and possibly only) International Paper Airplane Competition conducted by Scientific American. In addition to the behind-the-scenes story and official records of the Competition, readers will discover intriguing mini-essays on the historical, aesthetic, technological, and folkloric aspects of the paper airplane and on its startling implications for the future of aviation. Best of all, there are dozens of cut-fold-and-fly-them-yourself planes to experiment with. Combining real science with outright fun, this book appeals to paper airplane enthusiasts and would-be aviators of every age.

That kid was me. This book is recommended for kids and adults 8 years or older. Kids younger than 10 years old may require assistance during construction. Pilots 6 years old and older are welcome.

Book Description
"...projects, based on historical prototypes, are very detailed, and the finished products are colorful and airworthy."--Library Journal With nothing more than paper, rules, pencil, scissors, glue, and this all-color extravaganza of super fliers, construct 18 different planes that really zip through the air-and tell the story of modern flight. Start with the Aero Bat, modeled after the first, birdlike planes developed a century ago. Work up to the biplane, the design the Wright brothers used, and progress to the SST Concept, a model so futuristic it's based on a plane that hasn't yet been built. Each flier has historical, technical, and scientific background, detailed diagrams and instructions, and a full-color photograph that offers decorating suggestions. It's fun, it's hands-on, and it makes time really FLY!
