Folding paper is an art and requires patience and practice. There are 50 paper airplanes at http://www.paperairplaneshq.com and folding them all would really be a fun challenge.

I’m an origami fan and paper airplanes is one of my favorite forms of the art. It challenges not just your folding skills but also teaches you about aerodynamics. I remember a software called “The Greatest Paper Airplanes”. It teaches how to fold 50 different paper airplanes step by step with instructions and videos. Too bad the software is no longer distributed but there’s a website that teaches how to fold those 50 paper airplanes.

I love origami! I haven’t made one of the 3-D balls or stars, but I’ve done a lot of complex figures.
