Classic Dart Paper Airplane Flying

Oh come on we all know how to fly these! Well I'll just give a refresher course. You throw this plane overarm and on the level. It will fly quite far and very straight if you have made it correctly. It is very hard to make it so poorly that it crashes. It flies very well indoors and out.
