All Paper Plane Academy pilots can hang up their googles with pride tonight. After two big days at the State of Design Festival link, more than 600 paper plane cadets folded, fastened and flew some of the best designs we have seen yet. They tested their mettle and delivered … and had a whole lot of fun at the same time!
Take a look at some of the action and fun from this year’s event below. We’ll have more photo’s coming up in the next few days.
Thank you to all our co-pilots for their excellent service these past few days and a special mention to C0-Pilot Nathan who commanded the show and Cadet Ken – his first year with us, but what a standout!
Want to know where we will be next? Keep updated via the website or if you can’t wait – call us and we can come visit you at your next birthday party or big event here.
Over and out
Major Mike
