Overview

Get ready to pop, fold and fly sturdy paper airplanes!

Origami author Andrew Dewar rediscovered his childhood love of paper airplanes in Japan working with Yasuaki Ninomiya (creator of the famous White Wings planes). His designs are incredibly easy to assemble and his book not only explains how to make paper planes, but how to tune them for better performance. For the daring paper airplane maker, he also gives tips on designing your own airplane models.

The helpful instruction book inside the kit provides clear, step-by-step instructions for each plane. All the planes are printed in full color on high-quality cardstock and precut, so you just push out the pieces, fold them and staple them. The rubber band catapult launcher that is included makes the planes soar and swoop to great heights—which draws a crowd and keeps both kids and adults entertained for hours.

This paper airplanes kit contains:
  • 12 reliable and fast pop-out paper planes
  • Rubberband catapult launcher
  • 32 page full-color origami booklet
  • Step-by-step instructions
  • Paper folding basics and tips
These awesome, high-performance planes are frustration-free—no glue needed, just a stapler and some imagination.

Origami airplanes include:
  • The lifelike Wasp
  • The Streaking Comet
  • The stealthy Stingray
  • The rocket-like X-15
  • And much more…
