4 Will it Fly? Analysis AND it is stable Press F3 or under Analysis
Once you get an AERY number AND it is stable Raise Hand

5 Warm-Up – 9/7 – 10 minutes Utilizing your notes and past knowledge answer the following questions: What key or menu item would I select to check if my Aery glider would fly?

Why is it important for the stabilizer to be centered on the fuselage? What is the best method for gluing on the wings and stabilizer?

6 Shaping the Wing Profile
Leading edge should have minimal rounding Trailing edge needs taper on top only Use sanding block and edge of a solid surface for uniform sanding

7 Warm-Up – 9/7 – 10 minutes Utilizing your notes and past knowledge answer the following questions: What key or menu item would I select to check if my Aery glider would fly? What should you do to the leading edges of the wings and the stabilizers to aid in flight? Why is it important for the wing to be centered on the fuselage? Why is it important for the stabilizer to be centered on the fuselage? What is the best method for gluing on the wings and stabilizer?

8 Adding the Wing Center the wing on the fuselage
Glue it on straight and square to the fuselage this is critical

9 Balance the Glider Place pencil on table top and put glider on top of it with center of gravity directly over pencil Add clay to nose until glider balances at the center of gravity

10 Balance the Glider Hold glider on fingertips placed at nose and tail
Add clay to wingtips until glider balances at fuselage

11 Warm-Up – 9/7 – 10 minutes Utilizing your notes and past knowledge answer the following questions: What key or menu item would I select to check if my Aery glider would fly?

16 THIS DAY IN AVIATION September 7
1904 — The Wright Brothers first use their weight-and-derrick- assisted take-off device in order to make themselves independent of the wind and weather. When the heavy weight is released, the rope pulls the aircraft, which sits on a flatbed truck, over the launching track, thus assisting its take-off.

17 THIS DAY IN AVIATION September 7
1909 — The United States Army's first “Aerodrome,” an airfield or airport, is established in College Park, Maryland.

18 THIS DAY IN AVIATION September 7
1956 — New manned flight altitude record of 125,200 feet set by Capt. I.C. Kincheloe. (Bell X-2)
