Microsoft Paper Plane Competition!
This fun little paper plane simulator has been around for a while, but I’ve only just discovered it 
I think it may have been launched around the time Flight Simulator X was launched, but better late than never! It’s a paper plane simulator, playable right from your browser, and it’s terrific fun I can see many hours being lost to this!
For the record, my best distance so far is a pitiful 9.968m. Post your best results here! I’ve set up a league, so come along and join in the fun.

Have now managed 101.495 metres - my best so far
I got 114.302m for a global rank of 5,947
Now that IS impressive. Care to share your technique?
It’s WAY too addictive, though!
This is an addictive little program. Great fun though, when you need a break from all the serious sim flying!
114.734 @ 1641.
How are others getting more distance????
How did you manage that?! I’m struggling to get over 100 now

i’m getting over 80m most of the time. Best distance is 107.582m
I’m managing to get a regular 114, but can’t seem to get above that!

I don’t know how you guys are getting these numbers! Must…stop….playing…..Aarghhh!!
I must have played it over 1,000 times now! At least, it feels like that many times

to do well, put the airplane in the very top left corner, then move your cursor around the window, and, in the center of the right you may notice some horizontal bars going downward, you need to place the cursor so that the plane curves and goes out the top of the window, this way, you can easily score over a hundred
Yep, that’s the “secret”, although I guess it could be construed as cheating

Could you explain this a little more for us thickies please? thanks
You need to “pick up” the plane by holding the mouse down over it and dragging it to the top left, but then keep dragging the mouse around (the plane will stay where it is), under the “game” window, over to the right-hand side of the game window, then as soon as you touch the right-hand side of the game, the plane will launch.
Hope this makes sense!
Whats the best anyone ever thrown. Friend of mine’s thrown 188m !!!
My personal best is about 144.
My personal best up to now is 112.89M
Up to 105.085m, I’m leading the office but obviously got a long way to go!
My best is 114.675m but no matter how much i try different things cant get any further, Any Ideas anyone???????
I consistently get 114 ish but how do you get past this using the “outside the box” cheat? Or is there another way??? HELP
Can consistently get to 114 but how do you get beyond to 144 or 188? Is there something extra you need to know or do? Help!
i got my best as 114.802, my global ranking comes up as a - , can anyone help?
my best is 114.81m i didn’t get to submit. 144 and 188 sound like lies…
Same.
114.781
I can get 114 easy. not even close to going past that.
188 is a lie or another cheat involved
i got a score of 114.802
my friend went 102.xx without cheating…
I got to 115.338, cannot go any further?
hi all, i wanna join a league with u guys. feel free to add me to ur league. daveyp1983@tiscali.co.uk thanks my pb is around 114-115 on v1 on v2 its 146 ish
I’d love to create a league, but it doesn’t seem to let me! The URL is for the league game, but it doesn’t seem to retain the scores.

My best is 114.403 with the little chaet (thanks). What is the difference between v1 and v2? I heard 130 ws the best but 14 and188. My entire league is dumbfounded and can not get much past 114.8
i got 114.573
if u copy it into excel, then take it to top corner (Cell A1) then hold mouse down to column 18 move mouse onto screen where it is 18.
Hi All, my top score is 118.275 with out using the cheat. Just need to practice flicking your wrist starting from the top left as per the cheat. Image is available for proof… do not beleive the 188 etc.
I managed to get 124m, if you throw it backwards it gets launched really fast out of the top of the wall! found it by accident, but it’s amazing!
how do you throw it backwards?
how do you throw it backwards?
