This paper discusses experimental observations of the meandering fall of light-weight tissue paper ribbons. The photographs show that the ribbons assume a sinusoidal shape with a unique wavelength which scales with the thickness of the airstream entrained by the ribbon. © 1982 American Institute of Physics.
