the 1970's French mountaineers began experimenting with going down snow mountains with large parachutes, but this led to paragliding. Decades later there was a sort of resurgence or better yet, a curiosity to see what else could be done to affect flight with parachutes and surprisingly enough, brought us back to the mountains with what became called 'foot launching' with Speed Wings. In most recent years, we now have Speed-Flying. You have to watch this video: Speed Flying Enter,…
Asha did an experiment very similar to this. She tested if multiple paperclips affected the flight of the paper airplane. She thought that the paper airplanes with less paper clips would fly farther (Asha 3). As she threw the airplanes she begun to prove that her hypothesis was accepted. The more paper clips on the airplane the paper airplane had…
different pioneers that have contributed in some way to our present day knowledge of aviation. The two people that I think contributed the most to aviation are the Wright brothers. They were able to be the first successful people to create a controlled flight of a power driven airplane. This completely changed the game in aviation. It taught others new and safer techniques on how to fly. During this time they were at the top in aviation. They both became very successful in their business…
about the history of it and Puerto Rico, and finally, we finished off our day in San Juan looking out into the crystal clear ocean at a beautiful sunset. After that, we headed back to the hotel, I had about 2 hours left before having to leave for my flight. Consequently, we decided to just chill out talk and play some card games, and we had a great time. Finally that time had come, in which we had to part ways, it was very emotional because I had gotten really close to my cousins and I knew…
Ever since I was just a youngster I have always had a fascination with airplanes. When I took my first trip on an airplane I was really uneasy about it. Then they brought me into the cockpit and let me see all the instruments and we talked about how planes worked. My fears all turned into fascinations and I realized how relaxing being in the air really was. After that I was almost sure that I wanted to get involved with planes. I found out about a program that could help me become more involved…
air” (Brown). During flight, many pathogens come on board with the passengers such as: Influenza, Sars (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome), Tuberculosis, H1N1(Swine Flu), Meningococcal disease, and Ebola. “Wang referenced two cases of these viruses spreading on a plane, with the H1N1 flu virus spreading it to 17 other travelers and Sars spreading to 22 passengers” (McGuire). One passenger with H1N1 spread to 17 people in that flight and was spread to 22 people during that flight even though the…
vehicle is more advanced than the Husban X4 and comes with a camera capable of shooting high quality photos as well as videos. The Parrot Bebop has a number of sensors that help you in flying it in a more controlled manner. To control the movements and flight of this machine, you can use the FreeFlight 3 app which is available on all major platforms and is extremely easy to use. Top Race Micro F22 Stunt Fighter Jet…
gain. From the stolen blueprints, they were able to create a better aircraft that was able to fly 1,060 mph and reach roughly 15,500 feet in altitude. Astonishingly, out of the Avro Arrows 120 built, only one survives, though unable to make another flight. These jets had their beginnings when engineers continued to build stronger, better aircrafts for the oncoming war. Unbeknownst to a group of engineers, the government was well on their way to creating their aircrafts,…
canceled due to illness. American Airlines instructed me to file a claim with Allianz Global Assistance. The details of the trip and cancellation are as follows. On Friday, January 12, 2018 after a phone counsel with my physician, I cancelled my flight from Detroit to Phoenix because of a respiratory infection. Due it being a weekend, I was not able to visit the doctor’s office. However, the physician prescribed the attached medications and said that if I developed a temperature I would be…
Flight 800, Pure Tragic The odds of someone getting in an airplane crash and dying are one in eleven-million. The one plane crash that has been talked about the most the past 22 years is Flight 800 better known as “TWA Flight 800”. This was unluckily one of those one in eleven-millions. However, did the plane just crash? Or was it apart of something or someone´s plan. Was there really a missle that hit the midsection of the plane that caused it to explode. Or a short circuit that ignited a…
