The following weights are accurate enough to provide a good standard for comparison. Most of the weights
shown below were obtained from the website www.modelflight.com. Your friendly editor has added the
undoped tissue weights, and for those into gram measurements, calculated the grams per square yard for each
material. Don’t plan on using a square yard? Just divide by 9 to get the square foot weight. You should
keep in mind that there may be small differences between samples of the same material due to manufacturing
processes, dyes, etc. Remember, the lighter the airplane, the better it flies and the softer it hits the ground!
