A waxed tissue paper airplane surfer walkalong glider is flown on a slalom course between the columns in the main hall. For more information on how to build and fly this type of paper airplane see:

For information on how to make this design see:

The air was turbulent especially around the columns. The turbulence necessitated flying at a high altitude to better recover from upsets caused by the turbulence. See the video here for a flight in smooth air at a lower altitude:
