1. Fold a standard piece of printer paper (typically 8.5 by 11 inches) vertically in half and crease.
2. Open up the paper so that the crease is pointing up and fold two adjacent corners to the middle crease.
3. Fold the point made in the previous step down to the crease so that the flaps are tucked under this fold. Now this should look somewhat like the back of an envelope.
4. Fold the two corners created by the previous step to the center crease so that the points are about 2/3 of the way down the center crease flap.
5. Fold up the point that has been covered in the previous step so that it secures the flaps against the crease.
6. Fold the paper airplane in half so that all the folds made in the previous steps are facing outwards.
7. Fold the wings down to the bottom so that the wings are perfectly aligned with the bottom of the airplane.
8. Unfold the wings slightly so that they are perpendicular to the body of the airplane and form a flat surface next to each other.
9. Test fly to get the feeling of how to throw the airplane by starting rather gently so that it glides along in the air, then experiment with medium to hard throws, and you will find that it flies very well indeed!
