This was a thoughtful and well-organized investigation into aerodynamics. I appreciate how you clearly explained the four forces of flight and then tested different airplane designs to see which performed best. Measuring distances in inches shows strong effort to collect real data instead of just observing casually.
What stood out most was your curiosity about how flight works and your determination to test four different designs. You moved beyond just folding planes and actually measured performance. That scientific mindset is impressive.
