Lessons learned from the balloon project

My lessons learned from the balloon project was working with other people you usually dont come into contact with on an everyday basis. And it was really cool to meet other classmates that i usually dont talk to because you got to get to know that person and their type of personality and the way they interact when they are faced with this type of work. And also how your fellow classmates work with you and others in the group when they are under pressure or a certain time limit.

Diffrent types of Aircraft

mattthebratt18 — Fri, 15 Oct 2010 17:07:55 +0000

There are many varieties of aircraft from attack to bombers. My all time favorite is the F-15 Strike Eagle which is a Fighter jet and serves with the United States Air Force. Not all are with the air force, there are some with the navy or marine corps. Most of the good attack and fighter aircraft perform at airshows. But most of the aircraft that perform at the airshows aren’t military aircraft, there are some that are civilian aircraft. I think those are better for acrobatic aircraft.

The airshows aren’t the only situation that involve aircraft, Most of the fighter and attack or reconasince aircraft are in war right now as i type this. And there are some that arent military aircraft like the planes that fly with southwest or fed ex airlines that deliver goods from place to place. And also that is another situation that involve good and skilled pilots to do the job. Thats why before you fly you have to go through school and or boot camp if you’re joining the military to fly. So those are just a couple of facts and aircraft that i know and love.

Biggest Issues That Teens Face Today

I think that the biggest issues that teens face today are teen pregnancy and school. First of all pregnancy because girls and boys when they get into high school and college they tend to do some stupid stuff. Which sometimes causes pregnancy. But not only that but school because some kids want to drop out and get a job working at mcdonalds or somewhere like that and thats gonna be the best job there gonna be able to obtain.

But also i think pregnancy and school are two big issues because kids who do not want to listen to there parents who have already been in that sitution in some cases they want to disobey and do stupid things that can lead up to getting a bad job and lead also to pregnancy. But not only that there are some other not so bad issues that can lead up to it also. And also pregnancy and drop out of school can be a good thing and a bad thing in some cases but most of the time its bad. Just because it can be a good thing sometimes doesnt mean you should do either one. Just to conclude you shouldnt drop out of school or do stupid things to get pregnant just because you want to if your still at a pretty young age or before 20.

Howard Hughes

Hughes is also remembered by having a obsessive-compulsive disorder which now leads to the Howard Hughes Medical Instutute. He also had two films he produced which were everybodys acting-1927 and two arabian knights-1928. And also he had a near fatal accident in the xf-11 experimental aircraft while he was flying he had an oil leak which caused one of the contra rotating propellers to reverse pitch causing the aircraft to yaw sharply. He tried to save the aircraft and land it on the Los Angelas Country Club golf course but seconds before he could reach his attempted destinaton the airplane began to lose a lot of alttitude or began to drop dramatically in which the airplane crashed in the beverly hills neighborhood surrounding the country club.

Lockheed Electra

The lockheed electra was developed to meet a 1954 American Airlines requirement for a domestic short to medium range 75 to 100 seat airliner. Two Crashes which included the braking up of the plane in midair which occured between 1959 and 1960. Most Electra now are configured as freighters. The Electra also forms the basis for the hugely successful P-3 Orion long range maritime surveillance aircraft of which more than 600 have been built. There were two types of the Electra the L-188A which was the basic production model and then there was the L-188C which had greater fuel capacity and higher weights, and thus improved payload range performance. Lockheed only configured 41 Electras into freighters or convertible passenger aircraft. The T-56 engine is used in the P-3 orion and the lockheed Electra.

Boxman is a scary fellow when you meet him for the first time but once you start to get to know him he is a master at basketball and fishing. He has a job working for ups putting boxes up or something like that, i just know that he is obsessed with boxes. Well first of all he doesn’t like me telling anybody this but he is genetically made from boxes. I know it sounds impossible but it happened. My name is hollow and i am boxmans assistant. But due to his car accident thats the reason why he is made out of boxes.

The adventures of boxman is going to be about a man who had an accident and the only thing the hospital had was boxes and that’s what they had to use to put him back together. But that’s not all he meets some new people down the road since he is traveling across the united states to get to Canada to meet his family. They are traveling by car to the destination and hollow is going to be with him the whole way so there is no telling what problems or obstacles there going to have to overcome. Hollow met boxman back in the Greenville hospital about the time when boxman entered the hospital. Ever since the accident boxman has never felt better.

The first episode is going to be about boxman and hollow first meeting each other. And there will be a part where boxman will have to have surgery but im not going to spoil the show. Mostly what were trying to do here is just start this cartoon where it originally began in the book. This will be a fun and family like cartoon. Lastly i just want to throw in one more detail just to make the show awesome to watch there is going to be a guest star on the first ever episode and its going to be Eli Manning the QB for the Giants .
