- Step-by-step easy-to-understand illustrated folding instructions, including the level of cutting/folding difficulty, flight pattern, and durability levels to the corresponding airplanes.
- 20 symmetric models, ranging in difficulty levels, which are illustrated within the colorful guide.
- 80 sheets of eye-catching, pre-designed printed 8.5x11 paper for readers to practice with and create planes.
- Cool backgrounds that highlight each of the airplane projects.
