Description
How high can you fly? Build and test an airplane wing with some paper, cardboard, skewers, and a fan. You will also be learning about the Bernoulli effect--the principle that increasing the velocity of a gas (or liquid) lowers its pressure--and how most airplane wings are designed to take advantage of air pressure differences.
