Description
This is a simple program I made that can semi-accurately simulate the flight of a paper airplane. You can adjust the weight of the paper, the angle of the fins on the wings, the throwing angle and the throwing speed. It's kind of fun to try to find the combination which makes for the longest flight. BTW My longest flight (so far) is 35 Generic Units.Update: Values no longer reset to defaults after flight.

I know but if you adjust anything by one and keep the other things the same it doesn't go as far

I just looked into this again, i think there is some sort of bug in the physics engine where at about 5 units into the flight it suddenly increases the elevation from 9 to 26.
