Flying Wing (Gliding type)

Step 1: 
Lay the paper out on the table with the long side as shown. Fold in half to make a crease up the center..Then, fold the corners down to the crease...











Step 2: 
Take the top point and fold it all the way down to the bottom edge... Then un-fold so you've made a crease

Step 3: 
With the model flat again, fold the tip down to the crease line you just made...

Step 4: 
Next fold the top along the crease you've already made.. All we're doing here is building up the leading edge to get good flying balance and a tough little nose. This is one of the safer fold n fly models and perfect for little kids... Fly responsibly!!

Step 5: 
Yet Another fold.,,,and again, to the crease. We are creating a heavy nose so your wing will fly better



Step 6: 
Grasp the outer edges and fold the airplane back over itself..When you make this kind of fold, it's called a "mountain fold"

Step 7: 
Fold the 'wings' down keeping the 'fuselage' depth about one inch... Staple the fuselage together if you wish.



Step 8: 




Try adding a small paper clip to the nose of your flying wing. Do some experimenting with slight bending of the flying surfaces to get you wing to do variations with its gliding effects.
