SUMMARY- These are not origami paper planes - they are lovely, printed planes that you cut out and assemble with glue. They are printed both sides of the stock paper and they are bound into the back of the book, so it would be really difficult to photocopy them out of the book and get the front and back aligned perfectly - this is beyond most home systems. You'll have to destroy the book in order to make the planes. That being said, I LOVE their line-up. I didn't have a model of the International Shuttle, so I am doubly happy to have gotten this book - now I just need to find another copy pounded enough I don't mind destroying it the rest of the way.
