High Performance Paper Airplanes
This airplane is not very complicated as paper airplanes go, but still produces nice gliding flights.
Fold your rectangular paper down the middle, then unfold to create a crease.
Next, fold the top corners into the middle:

From Ed of Sudbury " This is my Origami paper plane. It is really 2 papers, both not glued, but just on eachother, making good weight for balancing. It's back has two flaps, to make it go up, and it also has 2 on the bottem, (which is not shown) which are ones that make the plane go down, during flight.
It is my best airplane, that I've kept for a couple months, becuase my first 15 tests, were a great flight, and it hovered the greatest! Wish I could of sent a video of its flight!"
