Make your own airplane!
Age suitable for: 5+
Come visit us and construct your own balsa wood or paper airplane!
We have pre-cut balsa wood, which you need to put together yourself and then balance it to make it fly optimally.
For the paper planes, we have a set of suggested designs for you to try out, but of course you can also develop your own!
We have plenty of space to test your plane and compare it to various designs. Weather permitting, we encourage you to take it outside and test it out on the grass fields of the Boldrewood Innovation Campus.
