The bog standard paper plane I make is a typical dart with quite a heavy nose. If it’s folded accurately it will go miles and can be given a real heave to get it going.
When I used to steward at The Oval years ago I was in the main grandstand and people were getting bored of the match and starting to chuck paper planes on the pitch. They were all rubbish, so I explained to a couple of teenagers how to make this design and they ended up getting them a real distance onto the pitch.
I like the hooped design too. People never believe it will fly until they see it.
