AltiFlytes are next-generation paper airplanes that fly spectacularly well, both indoors and outdoors. Developer Ed Darack created these easy-to-build aircraft kits for everyone, of all ages, including hobbyists, STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) students and educators of all grades, those interested in learning about aviation and related topics, and anyone seeking an engaging and fun set of activities. Each AltiFlytes aircraft amazes with its ability to fly long distances and remain aloft, riding air currents, seeming to defy gravity. Every launch, whether inside an apartment in the dead of winter or atop a hillside in summer, amazes, inspires, and opens opportunities to learn.

Constructed of a special type of paperboard that optimizes flying performance and durability, AltiFlytes require just a few minutes of cutting, scoring, and gluing for complete assembly. Detailed instructions are provided for construction, launch, storage, and display. Each set includes 25 different aircraft models for endless enjoyment and boundless opportunities to learn more about aviation and beyond. Couple AltiFlytes with their free companion educational resource, AltiSTEM, for an incredible and engaging series of experiences to learn about aviation, science, technology, and beyond.
