[Origami] The Paper Airplane Collector [article in New Yorker]

A profile of Harry Everett Smith and his paper glider collection:

Given that most of his collection appears to have been obtained in NYC, I
wonder if any member of Friends of the Origami Center of America/OUSA might
not be responsible for any number of gliders that made its way into Smith's
collection?

One of my favorite past times is to toss a paper airplane from a tall
building.  I've long dreamt of a sanctioned event of a launching of a
thousand paper airplanes off the Empire State Building.

Here's a video of one of my longest flights:

This was on Pico and Avenue of the Stars in Century City/Los Angeles at
Century Towers across from Fox Studios.

A couple more filmed flights:
