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 30 March at the cafeteria of building De Horst at the University of Twente from 13:00-17:00. A star-studded jury will pick the winners for the longest airtime and the longest distance travelled by their paper planes. The winners will be whisked off to the Dutch Finals on 30 April in Amsterdam and who knows, to the World Finals on 13 and 14 May in Salzburg.
Qualiflyers can be played on a free as-is basis, so registration is not necessary.
