To my knowledge this plane is Japanese in origin and it is a fantastic flier you will love it. Play around with it add stabilisers and flaps, it can be a good stunt plane too.

How to Fly
I would advise you to throw this paper airplane inside overarm as hard as you can almost level with the ground but perhaps (if anything) tilted slightly up towards the sky when you release the paper airplane.
You could also throw it underarm as hard as you can in the air. If it catches a breeze outside then it will fly a long way if you do this. You could also throw it overarm outside.
