Famous Aircraft in Origami- 18 realistic models
The book is by Chaquet Ulldemolins. I borrowed the book from my library and it was really a marvel. They were super-complex and looked like the real airplanes. They used advanced techniques like closed sinks and each plane comes with a beautiful color photo and a history of the plane. I doubt you can find a better aeroplane book than that.

It can be bought at amazon.com
This is an amszing book, the F-18 Hornet is skinnier and the cockpit is way far back than the real thing. The hardest model is the Fokker Dr.I Triplane, The Red Baron, is what its called, because it gets extremely small with 6 inch paper. Its the same with the Sopwith Camel, but the Camel is a beautiful model.
