The data consists of the distances paper aircraft flew when thrown from the second floor of the A building at the national campus in six different terms. The first term that the planes were thrown was Spring 2012. In Spring 2016 an El Niño weather event generated a headwind onto the porch. Spring 2020 the planes were thrown on March 6, ten days later the college closed due to the pandemic. Fall 2022 there were two sessions with the aircraft. In the second session the students were taught to build a special paper aircraft dart that is designed to fly further.
