Paper Airplanes Just a Thought

[ATannahill]

I remember taking an aerospace engineering class in high school and building planes from wood and launching them down the hallway*, it was a great experience and I hope more people get to do it. But that experience came after classroom learning, we studied how the wings of a plane interact with the air and how that is effected by the shape of the wing. We also did not do it while sitting in a speech by the principal to the entire school.

*Fun fact, the best distance was achieved by a plane that was just a stick of glue destined for a glue gun.
