Webmaster/Designer: Kyong Hwa Lee Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA My son and I just built a bunch of planes from our "Paper
Airplane Fold a
Day Calendar". Many we have built this year fly well, but the Space Ship One "SS-01" (Februar 1st 2008) that you designed is an unbelievable! Good job! I fly radio control electrics too! You should design a kit with that design in mind! Thanks. We enjoy the calendar very much. Roger. Roger Sturtevant (and son Jack) Franklin, MA Thank you for the
encouraging comment on my paper airplanes.The Space Ship was one of
that I have spent lots of time for experiment and it was a result
of repeated try and error correction sequence.
Certainly! I thought the calendar was a great idea. It teaches children a lot about spatial relationships (I think that's what it's called), but the ability to see a finished product from a flat sheet of paper. Already my 10 year old son seems to follow the steps better than I do. Maybe he'll be a packaging engineer someday! Roger. (February 5, 2008) Thank you for having such a great site Mr. Lee! It is amusing to me the hobbies we pick up over the years that are a direct result of being a father (or grandfather in your case)...I would have thought it absurd 10 years ago when I was not a father that I would devote any time to folding paper airplanes! I found your page through a Google search for Thay Yang, as I was going through his book "Equisite Interceptors" and was having some trouble with his designs and wanted to find other resources. I downloaded your patterns for the F-16, F-15 and Space shuttle and my sons (age 5&7) and I folded them on this Thanksgiving Day and had fun flying them outside. The F-16 got great lift and seemed to glide down forever--quite incredible actually...the only problem was with repeated flight out there on the wet ground they rapidly died out as they picked up water droplets..... I am ordering your 2008 calander book for my kids for Xmas! Please post more downloadable print patterns for the other designs! Thanks again Ed November 22, 2007 _________________________________________________________ |

Dear Mr. Lee,
I'm working for the online issue of a newsmag called "Der Spiegel". As
we
are planning a report about paper aeroplanes, I would like to ask if it
would be possible to use some of the construction manuals you put on
your website. It's understood, that in return we would link to your
site and tell our
readers that they can find more about paper aeroplanes there. As we are
one of the most-clicked German websites at all, this could help to make
your website even more popular than it is today.
If you want to take a look on our website, you will find it here: www.spiegel.de
. And if there are questions, just write me a mail or
give me a call.
Best regards
Kai Kolwitz

I have recently been given your
2007
fold a day calendar for a present and have been getting stuck in and
thoroughly enjoying myself, and jumping a few days ahead! After folding the F-15 I was surprised at how well it flew, considering all the tail surfaces etc possibly throwing it out. We decided to photocopy the plan onto A3 and make a big one, and after a little tweaking (was rolling right, wingroot lifting out of the center, so taped them down flat) it flies dead straight and level…awesome! It is great to have such a cool looking paper plane that also flies so well…I just wanted to let you know and send you a pic of our large one . Regards, Cameron Fuge _____________________________________________________________ |

Mr. Lee,
I like your paper airplanes. I
was wondering at a future date if I could make copies of your F-117 A
Nighthawk or one of your other paper airplanes so that I could teach
students how to make them. I'm with a not-for-profit organization
called "Scientists in School." I teach a unit called, "Air and
Flight" to Grade 6 students.
<>For this coming year we estimate
that we'll teach Air and Flight to 9000 students in 9 school boards in
and near Toronto. Please log onto www.scientistsinschool.ca
to find out who we are.
Finally, I would appreciate
your views concerning an article I wrote in S.T.A.O.'s magazine,
"Crucible," "Elements" section on "Aircraft Lift" (*September,
2004 ).

Hello, Mr. Lee
Thanks for your amazing site!
You might be interested to know that the Concorde may be made to fly
below a ceiling fan hanging from a sewing string.
Tie one end of the 1 m. long string to the little chain that turns
on/off the ceiling fan. The other end of the string goes to a paper
clip. Attach the clip close to the front end of Concorde's tail, in
such a position that hanging from the string, the plane forms a 30
degree angle nose up. Then turn the fan on and enjoy the flight. The
Concorde will start circling around and around. You might have to
adjust a little the length of the string, according to the fan's power
rating: the higher, the longer the string can be. It's a lot of fun to
watch.

Hello, Mr.
Lee My name is Shiniko and I'm a graphic artist at the Orlando Sentinel, a newspaper in Central Florida.

Hi-- I really like your designs and was wondering what publication (book/calender etc..) was going to to have this design in it: I also noticed that it was removed from the gallery section. I hope its still going to get published. I also really like the F-4 phantom design. Thanks, Jonathan Trout Apr.. 14, 2005 ___________________________________________________________ |

| Hi Kyong. My name is Garth
Epp.
I
recently came across your site, and
I really liked it. You have a high
quality educational site and I know our visitors would receive value
through a link to your resources. Your paper planes would be a
great homeschool project and study and it would be a great resource to
let the homeschool community about. Warmly, Garth Epp http://www.home-schooling-resources.net Rennie, MB Canada Apr. 22, 05 |
