I had a book around the turn of the century with paper airplane folding instructions. Lazily, I stuck to the simple ones and my favourite was called "Phoenix". Could not find it on this page but searching for the book I found a video where the author demonstrates: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=2V55rc58cDg

whenever a discussion like this comes up I try to recommend this book

Not as simple as the one in that vid. But a decent selection of them.

The book you're thinking of is called "the gliding flight" and is my favorite paper airplane book.
