Flight Testing In Scotch Plains (Planes?) Week 8

This week’s Aerodynamic Engineering course has gotten off to an exciting start, with campers designing and building their own parachutes to maximize air time. However, a normal sized room is no place to test those sorts of devices! Instead, we dropped them out of a window in order to test them more thoroughly and accurately, and get a better sense of just how well they actually work! We even experimented with different ways of releasing the parachutes, with varying success.
