Learn the four forces of flight and aircraft control surfaces by
building your own paper airplane! You'll also conduct a preflight
check of a Cirrus aircraft and learn what kinds of things pilots have
to look for to make sure their plane is airworthy.
This
event has a live, in-person portion during which you will receive a
special supplies kit to then take home and finish your badge on your
own.
ADULTS: There are 5 spots available for adults to be
involved in this event, at The Museum of Flight's
request. These spots are LIMITED due to limited space in the
classroom, so please only register if you need to be present with
your Girl Scout in the classroom AND you are willing to help museum
educators with the activity. Registered adults will be able
to enter the classroom and will be expected to assist museum educators
with managing youth behavior for ALL Girl Scout participants (not just
those you bring to the event), passing out program materials, and
other small tasks as requested. We are working with the museum on
workshop-specific information and will share that when we have
it. Non-registered adults will not be able to come into the
classroom unless specifically invited by museum staff, and may instead
wait in the lobby or explore the museum.
Girl Scout youth
participants will get a complimentary wristband to the Museum for
themselves and ONE accompanying adult (whether that adult is
registered or not). Any additional family members will need to
purchase their own wristband at admissions.
This
Aerospace event is made possible by Boeing.
