Rudders are made with reverse folds. Start by creasing the paper along the fold lines.
Open out the plane slightly, reverse each of the folds, and recrease them to make a
neat rudder.
Most of the planes need a final tweak to really fly well. They will dive until you bend up
the back edge of the wing slightly. Bending the wing keeps the nose up and lets the
plane float on the air. But bend it too much, and the plane will stall and crash. Bend the
back edge more or less until the plane flies just right.
Your plane won’t fly well unless it's straight. Hold it at arm’s length and check.
If crooked, carefully twist the wings and tail until they are straight.
Test fly the plane by tossing it firmly straight forward and watching how it flies. If it
stalls or dives, adjust it and test fly again, until it glides gently like pattern A.
Just right!
If your plane turns to one side or the other, adjust it until it flies straight as in line 2.
Fix a left turn by bending up the back edge of the right wing slightly.
Just right!
Fix a right turn by bending up the back edge of the left wing slightly.

You’ve probably made lots of paper darts. But I’ll bet you’ve never made one
from square paper. There are lots of ways to do it, and I’ve made a box full
of them. I think this one looks and flies best. What do you think?
Lots of weight in the nose makes this plane a stable and steady flier. You
can throw it very hard outside, but keep your eye on it. It might go farther
than you expect!
Start with the paper face down, and fold on line 1.
Fold up on line 4.
Fold back on line 5, and tuck the tip behind the two flaps.
One day there may be starliners that can take off and land at airports, and
fly through space on their way around the world. And when there are, they
may look like this. Star Clipper looks very high-tech, but it’s really easy to
fold.
Start with the paper face down, fold on the 1 lines, and flip the plane.
Fold the wings down on the 5 lines, and open them out again.
Fold the rudder on line 6, and then reverse fold it.
This is a very simple plane, but it looks and flies just like a fighter jet. The
small, delta-shaped wings make it very slick and speedy. How will it fly
outdoors? High and far? Or straight and fast?
Start with the paper face down, and fold on line 1.
Fold the wings down on the 6 lines, and open them out again.
Most origami airplanes have their wings at the back, with maybe a little
extra wing at the front. But most real airplanes have a tail at the back. After
a lot of trying, I was finally able to fold one with a proper tail, and it looks a
bit like a bird. Or maybe it’s an angel, or a ghost?
Start with the paper face down, and fold on line 1.
Fold the top layer only on the 6 lines to bring the sides back out from behind.
Fold up on line 7.
The phoenix is an immortal, mythical bird that ends its life in flames and is
reborn from the ashes. I don’t know what a phoenix looks like because I’ve
never seen one, but it might just be like this!
Start with the paper face down, and fold on the 1 lines.
