Forget cockpits, jet engines and the sweet smell of kerosene. All the equipment needed is an ordinary, commercial sheet of paper. But the recipe for success also requires a strong dose of exceptional folding abilities as well as creativity, imagination, and a grasp of basic aeronautic rules.
Tens of thousands of self-trained pilots will put their extraordinary skills to the tests in more than 80 countries on four continents for one of the world’s most international events and the top paper plane contest: Red Bull Paper Wings!
After Delft, Rotterdam and Groningen, the last Paper Wings qualiflyer will take off on the 26th of March at the cafeteria of building De Horst at the Universiteit Twente from 12:00-16:00. In this 4th edition of Red Bull Paper Wings, we will see who’s got what it takes to mix it up with the best and to be whisked off to the Dutch finals on the 19th of April in Amsterdam.
A star-studded jury will pick the winners for the most aerobatic flight, who along with the winners for the longest airtime and the longest distance travelled by their paper planes will advance to the World finals on May 8 and 9 in Salzburg.
