If you put a paper clip on the edge of the roll, engaging about 1/8"
of TP, it will
string out in a long line, as opposed to creating a large "pancake".

If you do manage to hit it squarely; land soon and decowl the
aircraft. TP has
been known to scatter across the top of the engine, sticking in the
cooling fins,
and presenting a very real fire hazard.

Ask me how I know.
