The power of flight . . in your hands., November 5, 2006
This review is from: Paper Flight: 48 Models Ready For Takeoff (Paperback)
Paper airplanes are probably one of the few children's pasttimes that has lasted thru the 20th century into the 21st century. But one thing surely has changed, the complexity of planes that can be built. As real-life aircraft become more and more innovative in design and appearance, paper aircraft have followed this lead. This book is a great example; 48 different models, many of them based on flying craft that are either real or featured in some movie or TV show. The models described in this book are quite exquisite, and range in difficulty from being easy to make to quite advanced. Some require scissors and other accessories along with the 8"x11" piece of white paper. But all are fun to make. The only drawback is the book tends to overestimate the flying ability of many of its creations. I've built all of the models several times, and some are not fliers in any sense of the word. But they are all nice to look at.
