Pocket Post-It Plane

Here is a design for a small, pocket-sized plane made from a post-it note. It is easy to make and flys suprisingly well. This is my entry for the pocket-Sized Contest

Get a Post-It Note.

Get a post-it note. The ones with the sticky strip on them are best, others will work, though. Peel of one note, and lay it down sticky side up on a table.

Fold the Sticky Strip

Fold the sticky strip over, letting it stick to the rest of the note.

It Starts to Become a Plane...

Fold the paper in half, unfold it. Fold down the upper corners. Make sure the sticky strip is in the front.

Fold in Sides

Fold in the sides of the plane, there should be two points at the back of the plane. (Look at the pics.) Fold in half again.

Fold Out Wings, and Finish Up

Fold down the wings, I like to make them even with the bottom of the plane. Re-crease all the joints to make the plane stronger.

Put It in Your Pocket

Fold the wings down, so the whole plane is flat. Slide it in your pocket.
