how to make the best paper airplane The Harrier

in this Instructable I will show you how to make a really good paper airplane i have pondered and wondered if this is really the best but i have recently done some tests and my conclusion was that yes this was the best paper airplane. the farthest i have gotten this plane to go is 112 feet!!!

Step 1 Fold in half

Fold in half so that the longer sides are perpendicular and are the closest to being in half.

Its called the nakumora lock after mr nakumora its inventer. not the harrier or the hammer.

Mhm. I've seen lots of people take this design and rename it like the "harrier" or "the eastern star".

Do you by any chance have the dangerous book fort boys by Dan and Hal Iggulden?

[starwarsfreak101]

uhm, i do.

 This airplane is awesome! I found that when u fold the wings if u leave 1/2" at the front and 2" at the back, it flies even better! still AMAZING instructable. 5 stars!!!!

Ah, the Harrier: the best paper plane in the world, the record of this plane is 5 km and 346 meters(!!!). I know, quite much, but it's real!

i must say, this is the best paper airplane i have seen on all of instructables. Flies great, looks great, what else can i ask for?

I remember making one of these about sixty years ago. The teacher was writing on the blackboard (back turned to class). The plane went around the room twice, then out the window!

ya it does fly well really well (not to brag) and if any 1 else wants to enter i wish you all good luck.

Wow, I just saw this contest, I would have entered this EXACT AIRPLANE, but I guess going to a jazz contest let you pull ahead.

By the way, this is definitely one of the better airplane designs (if you get it right it flies forever*)

*Forever=less than 1 mile*

[napalm008]

well i kind of can i did a test it out i had 20 different paper airplanes that were claimed that they were the best i flew them 3 times each (3rd times the charm) and this one won both of my tests the longest one aflight and the farthest thrown but still there could be a better one out there.

You can't actually guarantee" that it is the best, but it is pretty good.
I use this method a lot.

_{Darn, you beat me to posting this Instructable... <.<}

[GorillazMiko]

Wait up buddy... this Instructables doesn't count. You have to add in a 30 second or less video of it flying. :-)

[triplebirch]

I was thinking about entering this one. And yes, it is the BEST!

[ericsnapple]

Nooooo...... I was just about to enter this. .\ /. grrr... Good job though, although, when I make mine, I fold it 1/3 of the way up. Also, where's the video? And YES, this is the best design. Ever.

people make all these different airplanes but i reckon the classic is still the best ill still vote you though coz the other guy didnt make it up everyone knows how to make the classic
