Intercepting Paper Airplane

WIN_20191018_09_32_09_Pro.jpg

This paper airplane has some complicated folds but the end result is an airplane that has a too wide a berth to be a boomerang airplane but will "intercept" something that is directly in front of you.

Supplies

Notebook paper works great, anything that is a rectangular sheet of paper.

Nose Part 1 of 3

You make a crease in the center of the paper long wise then take the 2 top corners and them match them up to the center then take the top triangular part and fold it down as seen in the picture.

Nose Part 2 of 3 (the Rabbit Ear Fold)

Copy the first two photos then when you are done with that, fold to the second picture again then take the off center corner and fold it to the right on the first crease made in step 1. The end result should be what's in the third picture.

Nose Part 3 of 3 (the Squash Fold)
