How to Fold Heres what the arrows in the directions mean:

Fold this way

Fold and reopen

Fold around behind

Flip the whole plane over

Most planes startwith the paper facedown.
The drawingsshow the face in darkcolors, and the backin lighter colors.
This is a mountainfold; it looks like a bitlike a mountain.
And this is a valleyfold.
Rudders are made with reversefolds. Start by creasing thepaper along the fold lines.
Most of the planes need a final tweak to reallyfly well.

They will dive until you bend up theback edge of the wing slightly. Bending thewing keeps the nose up and lets the plane floaton the air. But bend it too much, and the planewill stall and crash. Bend the back edge moreor less until the plane flies just right.
How to Fly the Planes

Your plane wont flywell unless itsstraight.

If not, carefully twistthe wings and tailuntil they are.

The planewill go fromthis...

...to this.

Test fly the plane by tossing it firmly straight forwardand watching how it flies.

If it stalls or dives, adjust itand test fly again, until it glides gently like line A.
Just right!
Fix a stall by bendingthe back of the wingdown slightly.

Try throwing them straight up,as high as you can. This is how world recordflights begin... except that they are made insports stadiums. Can you beat 28 seconds?
Indoors, all you need is a gentletoss to get a good flight. Pushthe plane straight ahead, parallelto the floor, at about the speedyou want your plane to travel.
If there is enough room, you canthrow a little harder, but stillbasically straight ahead.
Besure not to hit anyone, breakanything or poke any eyes!
