SMART Goal: In the next 5 days, we will learn how planes fly and be able to follow the flight school lessons to safely takeoff, fly and land the airplane with a score of 80% or higher on each component.
What is the STEM behind your project?
Look at the diagram (left). Be ready to explain the STEM behind Aviation using the vocabulary words below.
Vocabulary:
yoke
pedal rudders
throttle
roll
pitch

drag
Show Mrs. Wilson you Edpuzzle score to move on.
Learn how to set up the Yoke, controls and rudders to your station and get started on the X-Plane Flight School Tutorials.
Continue going through the flight school tutorials until you can successfully take-off, control the plane and land. You should get an average of 80% or above on each section of Flight School before you can choose other planes and routes.
Keep track of your flights and scores on your data sheet.
