BottleNose - Paper Airplanes

BottleNose. The Bottlenose, category hunters. The Bottlenose paper airplane has an extra heavy nose and small wings. This makes the bottlenose look like a jet aircraft. The Bottlenose is the fastest in the dart family of paper airplanes. It is another easy to fold schoolyard paper airplanes that the kid in you wants. Easy to fold, easy to fly for almost immediate gratification.

THE THROW: Open the wing flaps and adjust the wing angles so they are even. Make sure that the main wing flaps have a good measure of down dihedral angle while keeping the wing tips up. Launch this craft with a swift throw at just about any angle you wish. If it spirals through the air, make sure the nose is perfectly straight, the dihedral angle is definitely downward, and the wing tips are even. This one travels fast so be careful.

Based on a design by H. Riley Watkins, the Bottlenose can be made out of a letter size sheet of paper. The difficulty in folding is moderate.
