Ken Blackburn

I am Ken Blackburn, known for setting the Guinness record for time aloft for paper airplanes four times. I am also an aeronautical engineer, previously working for Boeing, and currently working for the US Air Force. Flight has always been my passion; paper airplanes are the most fundamental way to experience flight. My paper airplane books share a common theme, great flying planes that are simple to fold, and that look great. A brief guide for which book may be best for you:

World Record Paper Airplane Book - My original book, lots of information and designs, generally 8 years old and up

Kids' Paper Airplane Book - Best book for new paper pilots, lots of activities and simple planes, generally 6 to 12 years old

Pocket Flyers - Miniature paper airplanes

Aviation Legends Paper Airplane Book - Detail replicas of famous planes, and the history of each

Happy Landings,

Ken
