Celebrate #NationalPaperAirplaneDay May 26th
May 26th is National Paper Airplane Day!
Children and adults alike celebrate what is widely believed to be the original inspiration for the sophisticated and highly-advanced aircrafts we use as modes of transportation today.
Paper aircraft folding is derivative of origami (the ancient Chinese art of creative paper folding), and is often cleverly referred to as “aerogami” by paper plane enthusiasts.
The standing world record for the farthest paper aircraft flight is an impressive 226 feet and 10 inches, set in North Highlands, California!
Paper airplane models and styles range from the timeless shape we have all come to know and love, up to intricate and elaborate forms.
