This is not homework, I'm just curious. Perhaps it belongs in the Engineering Forum, but the last one of these I posted there just got left in the dust.
I have a rather specific question to ask those of you who are familiar with paper airplane building/structure/dynamics. How would I go about building a paper airplane that could A) survive a 9 foot drop in which it starts literally straight down (nose to the ground) and B) could, after surviving the intitial fall, fly forwards ~ 8 meters.
All feedback appreciated, this will be quite interesting. Thank you for helping me, as I am not entirely familiar with this sort of dynamics.
Thanks,
Oscar
