Over the past week or two my kids have expressed interest in paper airplanes. It's resparked a old hobby. I used to make paper airplanes where you glue together strips of paper to make strong and fast gliders that look like real planes. I made one today out of cardboard, and it worked pretty well! It's an interactive process, so there are definitely improvements I would make if I make another.

I'm looking for conferences and conventions that might want a paper airplane guy. I used to do Pop Culture Con but am wondering what other cool groups have events in 2026.
Have paper, will travel...

Fold and Fly
Es müssen ja nicht immer die ernsten Nachrichten von der schwierigen Weltlage sein. Oder dem neuen (Grusel-)Kabinett, von dem ständig in den ganzen (Sozialen) Medien die Rede ist.
Man kann zum langen Wochenende ja auch einfach mal mit einem Blatt Papier davonfliegen. Mit Fold and Fly, nämlich.

Learn how to fold the Basic Dart, the Basic #PaperAirplane, the Stable Paper Airplane (all easy), the Buzz, the Sea Glider (medium), and The Navy, a hard-level design that’s “best for distance and time aloft.”

Experiments with #paperairplanes reveal surprisingly complex #aerodynamics
How these gliders keep level flight is different from the stability of #airplanes.

Fun write up about the physics of paper airplanes from #arstechnica today :blobfoxread: https://arstechnica.com/science/2023/01/experiments-with-paper-airplanes-reveal-surprisingly-complex-aerodynamics/
Turns out it's all about positioning the center of mass to enable a unique mechanism that self-corrects pressure imbalances.

Lol, someone just asked me for a Dollar while I was sitting on my balcony….. on the third floor.
Now I weirdly want to make a few #paperairplanes out of dollar bills to have on hand in case this ever happens again
