My paper planes.

 These are my three  paper planes. The 1st  one is called the Traditional paper plane the 2nd one is called the Ring glider and the last one is called the Hoop glider. The Traditional paper plane flew the best. My friend Eshnika helped me record it. The 1st one is yellow, the 2nd one is red and the last one was purple. The red one flew better than the purple one.
