Step	Image	Instruction
0		Start with a rectangular piece of paper.
1		Make horizontal fold along the shorter edge.
2		Unfold.
3		Flip the paper.
4		Pick up the bottom left corner and make a diagonal fold such that the left edge aligns with the top edge.
5		Unfold.
6		Pick up the top left corner and make a diagonal fold similar to the previous step.
7		Unfold.
8		Pick up the top left corner and make a diagonal fold such that the top edge aligns with the previous diagonal crease.
9		Repeat the fold on the bottom left corner.
10		Pick up the left edge and make a fold using the point of intersection of the last two folds along the central horizontal crease.
11		Pick up the top left corner and make fold such that the left edge aligns with the central horizontal crease.
12		Repeat the fold for the bottom left corner.
13		Fold the left corner to form a triangle pointing to the right.
14		Unfold.
15		Following the central horizontal crease, fold the paper in half.
16		Use the crease we created in a previous step along the left corner to create a squash fold.
17		Fold the top flap of the squash fold to form a downward facing triangle.
18		Make a fold such that the triangular face is split equally on both sides.
19		Pick up the top flap and fold the wing. Make sure the crease the wing creates is parallel to the bottom edge.
20		Flip the paper.
21		Fold the other wing.
22		Open up the wings such that they form a single plane. Make a fold 1cm from the bottom edge to form the vertical stabilizer.
23		Repeat it on the other side.
24		Make sure the wings form a single plane and the vertical stabilizers are perpendicular to the wing plane.
