I'm always really impressed when I first see these things but then I find out that it took them 5 years to do it, and then it just seems like they need to find something better to do with their time.

I would have to agree, and the fact he painted it a manila color and the all the lettering was was clear and requiring looking at at certain angles and specially lighting was a waste of time.

This is what the plane was suppose to look like

My thought exactly. All I kept thinking was "when is he going to paint it?"

wtf!

Paper planes are meant to fly!! Why make the model out of paper if you can't fly it. Make it out of something else, something more substantial that will last longer. Hell, if you're gonna put 5 years into something like this i would want it to last a long time!

Looks like a waste of time. Doesn't fly, doesn't blow up. Do not want.
