The aero-glider

The aero glider is a pretty odd plane, all in all, but it flies like a magic carpet (I'm using that term roughly).

   Step 1.    First, fold the plane in half along the line of vertical symmetry.

Step 2.    Next fold both of the top edges down so they form a right triangle.   (That's 1 90 degree angle and 2  45 degree angles

     Step 3.   Fold the point straight down to create a square

Step 4.  Fold the top two edges down again to recreate a right triangle

Step 5.  Fold plane in half again on the vertical line of symmetry

Step  6.   fold slanted edge down to touch bottom edge of the plane

Step 7.  Put tape on top to keep the plane together.

Authors note:   Make absolute sure you put the tape on or else your plane won't fly at all.
