Paper Airplane Guinness Record by Takuo Toda
Source: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RwaS7gkgaKM
A Japanese engineer has set a new record for the longest flight with a paper-only plane. Using a specially designed 10cm long paper plane, Takuo Toda's origami flight in a Japan Airlines hangar near Tokyo's Haneda Airport lasted 26.1s. While just short of the world record 27.9 seconds, it was a new record for a paper-only plane -- the world record (also held by Toda) was set by one with tape on it.Toda - head of the Japan Origami Airplane Association - said he was pleased with the record but hopes to achieve a 30 second flight soon.
