Need an extra lift for your paper airplane? Then put together this paper airplane launcher! As you pull the rubber band back farther, you build up more potential energy, which transfers to more kinetic energy when you launch your plane. All you need is a wooden board, two nails, a long rubber band, a paperclip, a hole punch, tape, and of course, your paper airplane!
