How to Fold

Here's what the arrows in the directions mean:


Fold this way

Fold and reopen

Fold around behind

Flip the whole plane over


Most planes start with the paper face down. The drawings show the face in dark colors,
and the back in lighter colors.

This is a mountain fold; it looks a bit like a mountain.

And this is a valley fold.

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.

How to Fly the Planes

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.

The plane will go from this...


...to this.

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!

Fix a stall by bending the back of the wing down slightly.


Fix a dive by bending the back of the wing up slightly.

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.
Diamond Dart

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?

Start with the paper face down, and fold on line 1.


Fold up on the 2 lines.

Fold up on the 3 lines.

Fold the plane in half towards you.

Fold the wings down along the 4 lines.


Here's how it will look. Bend the wings back out and you're finished!
Soarer

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 on the 2 lines, and open out the paper again.

Fold on the 3 lines.


Refold on the 2 lines.

Fold up on line 4.

Fold back on line 5, and tuck the tip behind the two flaps.

Fold the plane in half away from you.

Fold the wings down on the 6 lines.


Star Clipper

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 on the 2 lines.


If you are using your own paper, make a mark for step 3.

Fold out on the 3 lines.

Flip the plane.


Tuck the loose corners inside on the 4 lines.

Fold the plane in half towards you.

Fold the wings down on the 5 lines, and open them out again.
Fold the rudder on line 6, and then reverse fold it.

Refold the wings, and you’re done!


Alpha Jet

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 up on the 2 lines.


Fold up on the 3 lines, and open the paper out again.

Fold down on the 4 lines.

Fold down on the 5 lines.


Refold the 3 lines.

Fold the plane in half away from you.

Fold the rudder on line 7, and then reverse fold it.


Fold the wings down again, and you’re done!

Spectre

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 up on the 2 lines, and open out the paper again.

Fold in on the 3 lines.


Fold up on the 4 lines.

Fold the sides behind the plane on the 5 lines.

Fold the top layer only on the 6 lines to bring the sides back out from behind.
Fold up on line 7.

Fold down on line 8.

Fold the plane in half away from you.

Fold the wings down on the 9 lines, and you’re done!


Phoenix
To download the full-color sheets, please click HERE.

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.

Fold up on the 2 lines, starting half-way up the sides.


Fold up on the 3 lines.

Fold down on the 4 lines.

Fold the nose up on line 5.
