Paper flight written onto an Aviator windrose

I put three apps on one page because each card talks about a paper plane, and because the links arrived together. I did not put them on one page because they play alike. The check is 8 October 2026.

Rings, throws, and a crowded sky

Sky Loops describes a tap through rings. Paper Plane Dash describes a throw at a wave of creatures, with a local save and a line about playing offline. Air Wings describes a network battle and a toy-box of weapons. If you only remember one difference, remember that: solo timing, solo throwing, shared airspace.

The silence on two cards

Two lookups returned a rating count of zero. That silence is information. Air Wings is the exception, at 4.3 from 1,180 ratings, and it is still spoke three. A windrose that jumped the rated card to the front would be a different document. This one is a filing.

What I refused to fill in

No install totals. No in-app purchase inventory, because the lookup did not print one. No claim that a session lasts a certain number of minutes. The byte sizes are arithmetic on the published byte counts: 54.6 MB, 90.5 MB and 166.2 MB.

Where the planes actually are

They are on the App Store. Sky Loops, Paper Plane Dash and Air Wings each have a spoke with the store door on it. This note does not add a fourth door.
