Introduction
In this project, you will learn about the process by which projects are proposed, authorized, and proceed. You will design an original glider that sustains flight for the longest possible distance. This design challenge has requirements including time to complete an original design. Use the skills, knowledge, and understanding you have about how flight is possible. See how far you can design your glider to go!
Glider Design Requirements
1. Sustain flight over the longest possible distance in a straight line.
2. Be of original design by teams of no more than three developers.
3. Utilize standard AERY software format for design development and output.
4. Utilize construction materials specified by your teacher e.g. Balsa wood and adhesives.
5. Have decorations that are creative and attractive.
6. Be durable enough to survive normal launch, flight and landing conditions with little or no harm to its structure.
7. Be able to be launched by catapult of a design specified by your teacher.

Glider design #1
Conclusion
1. Explain which glider or aircraft term were difficult to understand and the correct definition.
The Flaps and the Aileron because i got the two confused in the way they helped the plan turn.
2. Explain any challenges if someone else were to construct your design using the AERY print.
Some challenges one would have to face is getting the plain to fly and getting a good evaluation number.
3. Explain any challenges faced using the AERY software and how you overcame those challenges.
You overcome those challenges by trial and error and working with your AERY to get it where you want it to be

Glider Design #2
Conclusion
1. Explain difficulties faced with this second design challenge compared with the first challenge.
2. Explain how these constraints impacted your glider design compared to the first.

Conclusion
To improve my plane i would have used less glue. I would have also been more perfect cutting out the pieces and making sure the pieces were perfectly line up. Finally i think i could have done a better job on the triangle piece that holds up the stabilizer.
