FLIGHT PATHS

BRIEF ABSTRACT

Flight paths is a project comprised of 3 flight scenarios: crop dusting, a movie stunt pilot, and a passenger plane landing. Among other things, students model flight paths by choosing functions that satisfy necessary constraints, and then reflect on safety and/or comfort issues based on the g's that the plane pulls.
