John Collins, also known as 'The Paper Airplane Guy,' teaches us how to fold and fly our very own "Tube" paper airplane. The Tube doesn't look like much, but it can certainly fly! You throw the Tube very much like you throw a football, letting the ring spin off of your fingertips. That rotation helps create lift, and lets the airplane do its thing.

This is by far the best how to make a paper airplane video, the result was much higher than my expectations. Very nicely illustrated instructions. Thank you for the video!

I used to make these a little differently. I used just regular 8-1/2"x11" copier paper. I never really experimented with other weights. I would make the first fold deeper, then two more progressively shallower folds so that the result was a tiered effect. I didn't use the rear fold. They flew quite well, with around 60 feet of distance in a good flight.

I used to make these all the time as a kid. Called it the glider. I tried to make them with my kids recently and couldn't remember. Thanks for the help!
