SUMMARY- The introduction gives you some history about paper airplanes and the first airplane competition - it got me curious so I went looking and found more information on Wikipedia. You get a lot of different models with interesting features and none of them appear to be that difficult to fold. The birds at the end are nicely done too - haven't tested them to see how well they fly yet.
