F-15 Eagle
PaperAircrafts.com
Build an easy paper jet model with your hands, some
scissors, two rules and some glue !
Check your handiwork skill !
Challenge a child to build it !
Assemble one as a gift for someone !
Collect the most famous jets in the world !
Once built, fly it !
PaperAircrafts.com presents a flying paper-plane that attempts to
replicate as simple as possible the famous McDonnell Douglas F-15
decorated as 33d Fighter Wing based on Eglin AFB.
The F-15 is a twin engine, single seat, ground based, air superiority
fighter. First flew in july 1972 to replace the F-4 Phantom II. Its owners
are the USA, Israel, Arabia Saudi, Japan…
Enjoy !
Print in sheet 1, page 8 and opposite 8, in sheet 2 page 9 and in
sheet 3 page 10. Cut the pieces, bend on the lines to give shape
and paste with glue. The plane is balanced and should fly with minor
aerodynamic adjustments.
Whole process from assembly to flying is detailed in this document.

! Note about Glue
Before start
pasteing the aircraft,
check your glue:
Spread some glue
in a sheet of paper
and wait some
minutes. If the
paper gets wrinkled
or wavy, then, that
glue is not valid for
paper; the aircraft
would be deformed.
Suitable glues could
be “transparent
contact glue” usually
for repairing shoes.

www.PaperAircrafts.com
Print pages 8, 9 and 10
in common paper A4 or
Regular Letter. Print at
scale 100% to avoid
parts distortion and using
option ”Auto-rotate and
center pages”. Do not “fit
to page” or “shrink to
page”.
Cut parts over the
external lines.
Fold over the lines with
the help of the rules to
achieve the shape of
each part.
Note that you can bend
the paper on the lines
with the help of the
rules, (to the opposite
side) and after it, with
your fingers, on the
same line, to the
correct side to achieve
the final piece shape.

√
Put little amount of glue. Otherwise, the aircraft
would look ugly and it would weight too much.
Paste the parts puting glue in the overlaping
surfaces.

Note about printing Parts
7
There are four pages with parts to be printed on three
sheets of paper. Page opposite 8 must be printed behind
page 8 in order to the plane was correctly decorated. Check
option “Auto-rotate and center pages” but do not “fit to page”
or “shrink to page”. Pages 8, 9 and 10 must be printed with
100% scale to avoid parts distortion. If you want to print the
rest of pages use “fit to page” option.
Page 9 Page 10
Page 8
Sheet 3
Sheet 1
If you want to build a static model (not to fly) you could print on a
high quality paper in high resolution. But if you want a flying model
it is better to use normal paper printed in low resolution for saving
weight and avoiding wrinkling the paper with excess of ink.

leading edge flaps

Although the F-15 doesn’t have
leading edge flaps, we can use them
to improve some flights.

1 Aerodynamic cleanness
Elevators and wing must be
parallel. If the surfaces are
bent, force the paper with your
fingers trying to straighten
them. The aircraft could have
defects, but they must be
symmetrical.

2 Aircraft balanced
Rest the aircraft on two fingers so that the wing’s circles
get positioned just over them. If it keeps levelled and
does not fall…it is balanced.
√
If it falls forward, the nose is
too heavy. Remove part or
whole piece 10
If it falls backward, it needs
more weight in the nose. Did
you paste parts 7, 10 and 12 ?
Add part or a whole piece 10.

3 Throwing

1. 2.
√3.
It is easier to throw the
aircraft keeping it on the
sight line and impelling it
on his longitudinal axis.
Once the easy
throwing is well
trained, try to
launch over head
for a longer flight
23

4 Correcting the flight path:
Pitch
If the aircraft pitchs down going to the ground, deflect upward
gently the elevators. Repeat the flight. If it keeps going down,
deflect the elevators upward a little more until the aircraft went
straight gliding.
If the gliding path osciles
like above… the elevators
may be too much deflected
upward. Reduce the
elevators upward deflection.
In this case the nose still needs a little
more weight. Cut a triangular piece of
paper and paste it in the nose
24

+
If you achieve to stabilize the glide path but it is too inclined
downward… the nose may be too heavy. Remove part of piece
10 and reduce the elevators upward deflection.
Correcting the flight path: direction
√
To correct the turn, deflect the ailerons asymmetricaly like
each picture shows but very gently. The deflection in the
pictures is exaggerated; you would obtain the opposite efect.

Advanced Flight5
Once you have calibrated the glide path in pitch and direction,
you can try different aircraft performances.
“Cruise”:
Deflect down
the LE flaps a
little.
The aircraft will
pitch down,
oppose it, rising
the elevators a
little.
The aircraft will fly more smoothly
“Approach”:
Deflect a little more
the LE flaps and
also the Flaps, (in
both wings).
Compensate the
pitch down,
rising the
elevators if
needed.
The aircraft will fly slower.
“Landing”
Deflect down the flaps
significantly, (both wings).
Compensate the
pitch down,
rising the
elevators if
needed.
The aircraft will fly more slowly with a shorter glide path.
