Step 1: Fuselage
See pictures
note. easy steps are skipped (quite obvious)
Step 2: Wings and Body
see pictures
note. 95% of this plane can be folded by aligning to previous folds somehow
Step 3: Assembly
put both together!
Step 4: TOSS IT!
Hold as shown in picture, Index at the end, thumb and 4th at each side, toss forward!
Tips
Rubberband launch is preferred
USE 2 rubber bands in series and pull back gently, sudden acceleration will kill the plane and it will fall like a dead bird
Using low gsm paper for the wings and high gsm paper for the body gives Exellent results
Aim 5 to 40 degrees to horizon
Inspiration from countless hours of boring school lessons, can fly and glide somewhat for above 20 metres (what do ya expect) if done correctly
Video is an attempt to fly it, will post more video if i can get better video

Step 5: Video
video proof of hand launchability, although not as awesoms as rubber bands.
