The Bird: This glider-type design is recommended by Fold 'N Fly for its ability to travel a long distance with careful adjustments. It relies on more lift to counteract gravity, allowing it to glide across a room.
World Record Design: A dart-style plane thrown by athlete Dillon Ruble with a design from aerospace engineers holds the Guinness World Record for the farthest flight at 289 feet, 9 inches (88.31 meters). These dart designs are long and thin to minimize drag, flying in a ballistic arc.
