Flying a paper plane has been of a keen interest to every child who usually gets excited looking at planes flying high in the sky.Many of us also might have flown paper planes during our childhood.Pima Air & Space Museum has come with a larger than life size paper plane concept in Tuscon,Arizona,United States of America on March 23,2012.
Pima Air & space Museum launched the 45 ft long 'Desert Eagle' which flew across the Arizona Desert albeit for 10 seconds across the skies. Pima Air Space official was quoted as saying the paper plane during the flight rekindled the childhood excitement in all of us The Desert Eagle was catapulted from an inspiration of a 12 year old Arthuro Valderamo design The 800 pound aircraft flew at a speed of 98 miles per hour at an altitude of 2,703 ft after being towed in to the sky by an helicopter.
The project began in January when the museum launched a contest to see who could fold a paper plane and fly it the furthest.Arthuro Valderamo's design won the contest and spurred by the kid's enthusiasm the officials at Pima bolstered the idea to see whether they could fly their own aircraft made from falcon paper.
The contest was hosted by Pima Air and Space Museum to motivate kids to develop an interest in Aeronautics,Maths and Physics.
As this was an amazing record achievement to try something different it has gained entry in to Elite World Records.
