Super Paper Airplanes - Softcover

"...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!
