AIRCRAFT DESIGN CHALLENGE VIRTUAL FLIGHT. REAL AMAZEMENT.

OBJECTIVE I will use the engineering design process to create an aircraft that can fly safely over America. INSTRUCTIONS Aircrafts were used to capture video footage of each of the FlyOver America locations listed below. In this challenge, you will be asked to create and build a model aircraft that could be built for use in the creation of a FlyOver America Version 2.0. Please follow each step carefully and good luck!
