It flies!

Over the course of the last few months, Lukas and Noah have been building an airplane. They designed it on the computer, printed out and traced the various parts, cut it out, assembled it and attached a motor. On Sunday, it was finally good enough weather to take it out for its test flight.

The boys practiced with Noah's glider and then it was time. Would the plane fly? What would happen when it land?

Excited boys watched the plane take off and fly high above the muddy park land, and relieved boys watched the plane make a relatively smooth first landing. Their project a success. However, being true engineers, they already had ideas of how to improve, enhance and refine their plane, so back home to the drawing board, the internet for research and credit cards for purchases.... stay tuned for Version 2.0 of the purple plane.
