  3. Who is this Person Talking to Me • I’m certainly not qualified to be teaching a room of experts…that’s the point though • I am not really an engineer • I’m an F-15 Experimental Test Pilot • I moonlight as an engineer and really just sound confident; but I know who to talk to

  4. Sorties • Hands-on Engineering Lessons • Teaches Engineering Process • Easily adjusted for level of students • Greatest Hits • Make it Taller • Forced Short • Parachute Factory • Falling Parachutes • Chopper

  5. Make It Taller • Inventory • Following directions • Making the plan • Executing

  6. Forced Short • Critical Thinking • Data Collection • Measurements • Critical Analysis

  7. Parachute Factory • Measurements • Geometry • Timing • Critical Thinking • Parachute shapes • Parachute weight

  8. Chopper • Critical Thinking • Measurements

  9. Lets Play • Air Derby

  10. Air Derby • Construction • Measurements • Simple ruler: English or Metric • Grid Coordinates • Subtracting Offsets • Pythagorean Theorem • Timing • How will you time to ensure consistency? • Release timing • Front of the Aircraft? CG? Initial impact? Final resting place?

  11. AIAA / STEMM Center • AIAA and ASME have hundreds of engineers • Judges, Essay Contests, Lecturers, tour guides, etc • Local Bases and Air Armament Museum • STEMM Center (Public Middle School) • Rick Soria • Please go there on a field trip…it’s awesome! • Full F-16 Engine Cut-away • They have resources/ideas • An accurate/up-to-date Contact List is Vital
