This paper airplane design has a thick blunt nose that makes it very durable. It won't get bent up as easily when it bumps into an obstacle.
Paper Airplane Folding Instructions
1. Fold the paper in half and then unfold.
2. Fold the right side over to the left, unfold and repeat with the left side.
3. Unfold again and then fold the right side down to the diagonal crease.
4. Repeat with the left side.
5. Fold the top down to the bottom.
6. Fold the top edge down as shown, about 3cm.
7. Fold the point back up.
8. Now, fold both sides in.
9. Fold both sides in again.
10. Next, fold the top point back down.
11. Fold the entire airplane in half, away from you.
12. Finally, fold out both wings so that the body is fairly short.
Give the wings an upward dihedral angle to improve stability and use a small bit of tape to hold that angle. Bend the tail flaps up just slightly and carefully adjust them to get the airplane to fly straight and level.
