Glider Airplane

Glider Airplane
This airplane was taught to me by my friend a couple years ago. It is somewhat simple, and likes a nice breeze. When thrown right, it can go about 6-7 yards. The pen lines you see are for help to see where to fold, not required. (this is my first Instructable, so go easy on the comments)

Supplies:
-Paper (standerd printer paper will do)
-Scissors

I learned to make this glider - gee, almost fifty years ago! I had always considered it to be the best flying paper airplane ever. By the time I was in highschool a few years later, I had forgotten how to make it. For whatever reason, I was never able to recreate it, though I have tried over the years. Thanks for the fourth grade childhood memories.....
