Cool Paper Airplane Designs

The Kookaburra Paper Airplane

The Kookaburra paper airplane has landing gear. That automatically makes it a cool paper airplane. It does need to be folded accurately but trust me, it's all worth the effort.

This paper airplane is the best model if you want to practice landing on table tops. The landing gears also add stability to the design.

The Eagle Paper Airplane

Just take a look at the Eagle paper airplane and you'll immediately say it's gotta to be in this list. Among the five Jets and Bombers in this website, the Eagle looks the most threatening.

The folding style is unusual. It is a complicated-looking jet that resembles the F-14E Phantom II when completed.

The Leopard Paper Airplane

Futuristic looking, the Leopard Paper Airplane is considered the most beautiful among all the crafts presented in this website.

This model requires very precise folding and requires a lot of patience. You'll need a square sheet for this model.

The Jupiter Paper Airplane

Fast evasive manuevers are easy for the Jupiter paper airplane thanks to its forward winglets that give it an extra measure of stability and control.

Medium to light paper is best suited for this star cruiser. This is the first of five Starship Paper Airplanes and yes, they all look cool!

The Mercury Paper Airplane

The most realistic looking of all the starships in the collection, the Mercury paper airplane will also swoop, dive and loop just like it would in outer space.

Distance flights or attack, this compact little starship can do both. It's a fun a versatile craft and you can fold it yourself.

The Neptune Paper Airplane

The Neptune paper airplane is a zippy little starship with forward looking weapons pods. It's a little tricky to fold and requires extra trimming.

Medium to light paper is recommended for this model. The design is based on the work of Campbell Morris.

The Saturn Paper Airplane

The Saturn paper airplane is an exotic paper airplane that looks like it's flying backwards when you first see it. This starship floats as if it's flying in outer space.

This odd looking craft works best with light weight paper.

The Venus Paper Airplane

The Venus paper airplane sports an evil array of nose fins but if folded and trimmed correctly will fly straight and true.

A craft of with menacing high-tech looking nose structure, this plane is a valuable addition to any fleet of starships.

The Willow Paper Airplane

The Willow paper airplane is a canard flyer with real control surfaces near the nose which allow an extra measure of expirementation.

This craft looks more complex that it really is to fold. It works best with medium to heavy weight paper.

The Fighter Paper Airplanes

I won't list all the fighter paper airplanes here but each of the paper planes in that group really looks cool.

Fighters are modeled after high performance military aircraft, these planes have the feel of real combat flight manuevers.

Here's the link to the index page for all five fighter paper airplanes.

The Ketch Paper Airplane

The Ketch Paper Airplane is a strange-looking box-like craft that flies well if folded properly. It looks like an alien among ordinary paper airplanes and thus ranks high in the coolness meter.

This interesting looking sqaure craft works best with light to medium weight paper.
