The very first day of our 6 days training, we learn about the 4 vital forces to take note of a glider.
"Lift" and "Thrust" are so call our good friends in flight while "Drag" and "Gravity" are our bad friends in flight.
We also fold paper planes and complete with each other to see which is best.The day ended with us building our very first glider and we test flight it as well.

DAY 2(3/10/09)
Mr.Leow brought his own glider to show us and tell us what every part do. Derek also brought his heli and put on a show for us.
One of the most important and vital day in our training as we design our gliders.The dimension of the parts we design much be very accurate and that we don't make a single mistake.Next the design of the glider is split it to 3 different view: top, side and front.
Finally we choose our material for our glider.

The day started with a detail design and everyone is given a part to design, for every part we will given a question that we had to answers.
