Abstract
Distance and duration of flight for paper planes exist in guinness record and the world tournament. Throwing method and flight are significantly different in the competition of distance and duration of flight. Tournament Participants get the best throwing technique by experience. The experiment was based on the rules of the world tournament by changing the parameters by prepare a plurality of airframe and quality of paper for the purpose of flight performance improvement. Consequently, paper quality and airframe required for flight duration improvement and flight distance extension are the direct contrast, that the strategy is different has been discovered.
