Aerogami
Aerogami is a branch of origami that deals with aerodynamic models. It differs from paper airplanes in that aerogami does not include models created via any means other than folding. It should be noted that the paper planes are only a part of aerogami as aerogami models would also include spinners, floaters and so on as even these models exhibit interesting aerodynamic properties. Aerogami can be summed up in the phrase "fold and fly".
