Outline

Is it possible to recreate a miniature passenger plane by reducing its measurements, weight and shape? This work is an experimental solution to this question. The miniature plane has three major design characteristics: a simple unfolding pattern for balance; a method of creating a lift from the wings to compensate for a lack of engine power; and a realistic-looking body able to fly straight and surely.
