Welcome to the Flight Olympics!

Purpose of the Flight Olympics To promote innovative designs of paper “airplanes” (gliders) that are able to perform various tricks

Important Events We have decided that our gliders will compete in the following events: Distance Height Turn left/right Roll left/right Flip Longest time in air Speed Aesthetics Safe Landing These are important because…

The Variables Controlled variables: Manipulated variables: Must resemble flier Must be made of paper (fuselage) Amount of time at school Way craft is thrown Thrown from same spot Made by yourself Manipulated variables: Size Small manageable materials added on Removable parts Time spent at home Fuselage Moving parts of plane Responding variables:

Your Task Design (one/more than one?) glider to compete in the flight Olympics The Olympics will take place on… April 7&8

Inventor’s Journal Requirements You must include the following in your inventor’s journal: Sketches of each glider that you will build Labelling - You MUST accurately label the following at least one time each in your journal Rudder Ailerons Elevators Fuselage You must have a minimum two sentence explanation of why you designed your glider the way you did. Somewhere in these explanations you must accurately include the following terms: Roll Pitch Yaw
