This is not your mother’s weekend aerospace activity.  This is building and doing!  Test your skills by making and launching your own rocket, building a model airplane as a team and getting the chance to fly it by remote control.  Learn about aviation and its history; explore space in the classroom and planetarium. Visit one of the world’s great aviation museums (E.A.A. Museum at Oshkosh), experience flight in a CAP airplane. Discover what weather is all about, learn to develop a flight plan, discover how to operate a compass and GPS while you look for hidden treasure (your lunch). Be challenged flying high performance simulators, competing on the “challenge course”, and working with your hands in a sport air workshop.  Here you will work with composite materials, construct wing ribbing and build with sheet metal.  All of these activities, and more, are planned for the Aerospace Education Academy.
