Description

Our 2023-24 Flight Experience is a chance for students to practice math, physics, and geography skills using a flight simulator. Under the guidance of Mr. Dawson and guest pilots, students will be taken through procedures for taxing, take off, landing, and navigating using small planes, jets, and commercial aircraft as they advance through courses.  

Flight club students will learn to navigate using their instruments and air traffic control.  The simulator is based on X-plane software and uses technology such as tablets, simulator yokes and pedals for realistic flight and navigation with more than 20,000 airports in a database. 

Students will learn various skills including:

  • Basic math and computation 

  • The basic forces at work on their aircraft, particularly lift, weight, thrust, and drag.

  • Logic and perception

  • Note taking skills

  • Collaborative communication

  • Measurement, time, distance, & speed

  • Reading and interpreting maps and understanding coordinates

  • Completing pre-flight, taking off, flying, and landing checklists

Days and Times
Students will be arranged based on their level of experience.  However, I will be flexible with student’s after-school schedules.  Once your child is registered, I will reach out to you to discuss the time and day of the week your child will be pulled for flight club.  All fees must be paid at the time of registration to confirm your child's seat in flight club.  This is a popular club, so do not hesitate to reach out if you have questions.  Sessions are generally after school except for daycare and holidays.

Non-registered students have sessions only on Saturdays 10 a.m.- noon.


- Enrollment is limited to 15 students per session
FEE
The fee for this after-school club is for NHS students - $180 for 8 sessions. (Sessions will start the week of October 16 - April 26, 2024).  Sessions are 1 hour per week + extra opportunities to practice skills. All proceeds go towards the purchase of new equipment and software fees.
