F-22 White
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 !
Print on sheet 1 page 8 and opposite 8, on sheet 2, page 9 and on sheet 3

page 10. Cut parts, fold on the lines shaping pieces 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.
The F-22 is a single seat, twin engine, fifth generation, air superiority and
stealth aircraft. Built by Lockheed Martin, its superb technology makes it very
expensive. US laws don’t allow it to be exported outside the USA
Enjoy!

How to build it
Tools:
Two rules to fold paper accurately
Transparent
liquid
contact glue
Sccissors
Thin stick

! Note about Glue
A suitable glue should have these features:

-Accurate application. So that you can easily put a string of glue over a
narrow paper tab.
-Transparent. The airplane will look better if too much glue is applied and it
overflows tabs' boundaries.
-It should dry fast enough. Two minutes keeping a part in place should give
the glue enough strenght to release the part and go for the next.
-It should dry slow enough. The glue must allow during a time to shift a part
to its correct position before it gets hardened.
-And most important: The glue must not bend or wrinkle the paper.
Before start
assembling the
airplane, 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 and look
ugly.
Suitable glues could
be “transparent liquid
contact glue” usually
for repairing shoes.
They can be found at
“Glues” section in big
√
shopping centres or
X hardware stores.

Print pages 8, 9 and 10 in

common paper A4 or Regular
Letter. Using a paper with basis
weight 20lb // 80gr/m2 would
simplify the balancing process.
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 obtain the shape of
each part.
Note that you can fold 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 obtain the final
piece shape.
5
Paste parts puting glue on the overlaping surfaces.
Put little amount of glue. Otherwise, the airplane

would look ugly and it would weight too much.

Note about printing Parts

Use either letter or DIN A4 formats, preferably with basis weight 20lb //
80gr/m2 . 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”. Print at 100% scale.
You needn’t to print the rest of the document. View it on the screen and
zoom in when needed.
Page 8 Sheet 1 Page opposite 8
Page 9 Sheet 2 Page 10 Sheet 3
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.
A basis weight 20lb//80gr paper is perfect to fold and fly. As thicker is the
paper as more difficult to fold and heavier the plane to fly.

1 Aerodynamic cleanness
√ X
If surfaces are bent, force the paper with your fingers trying to
straighten them. The airplane may have defects, but they must be
symmetrical.
28
2 Aircraft balanced
Rest the airplane on two fingers so that the lower wing

circles get positioned just over them. If it keeps levelled and
does not fall…it is balanced.
√ Ready to fly
If it falls forward, the nose is

too heavy. Put a load in the
tail.
If it falls backward, it needs more

weight in the nose. Did you paste
parts 17,18,15 and 28? Add
some pieces of paper if needed.
29
3 Throwing It is easier to throw the

airplane keeping it on the
sight line and impelling it
on its longitudinal axis.

deflect elevator upward gently.

4 Correcting the flight path: Pitch
If the aircraft pitchs down going to the

ground, deflect the elevator upward gently.
Repeat the flight. If it keeps going down,
deflect the elevator upward a little more until
the aircraft went straight gliding.
If the gliding path osciles like above… the

elevator may be too much deflected
upward. Reduce the elevator upward
deflection.
In this case the nose still needs a little

more weight. Add some pieces of
paper in the nose.
31
If you achieve to
stabilize the glide path
but it is too inclined
downward… the nose
may be too heavy. Try
to remove part of piece
28 or put weight on the
tail and reduce the
elevator upward
deflection.
+
5 Correcting the flight path: direction
In order to correct the turn, deflect ailerons asymmetricaly like each picture
shows but very gently. Deflections in the pictures are exaggerated; you
would obtain the opposite effect.
32
In case of little corrections in direction, you can use the rudders.

Deflect them very gently.
Correct left turns deflecting Correct right turns

rudders right deflecting rudders left.
Slipped flight has poor glide ratio. The airplane somehow flights
sideways and a little banked. Tails and wings may not be fine.
Flight path Flight path
Left slip: tails driving right, Right slip: Tails driving left,
wings driving left wings driving right
Correct left slip deflecting Correct right slip deflecting

rudders left and ailerons rudders right and ailerons
driving right driving left
33
6 Adding lateral stability

If the airplane flights suddenly banking to both sides, even until
staying upside down, (mostly on gusty wind); adding dihedral angle,
(folding wings upward a little), may improve the flight.
34
7 Advanced Flight
Once you have calibrated the glide path in pitch and direction, you
can try different airplane performances.
“Cruise”: The airplane will

pitch down, oppose
it, rising the
elevators a little.
Deflect down the leading

edge flaps a little. The airplane will fly more smoothly
“Approach”:
Deflect down the
flaps and the LE
flaps a little more.
Compensate the pitch

down, rising the
elevators if needed.
The airplane will fly slower.
“Landing”:
Compensate the
pitch down, rising
the elevators.
Deflect down
the flaps
significantly.
The airplane will fly more slowly with a shorter glide path.
