The week of 9/16–9/22: Homework

 

We had a lot of fun during class this past week and I hope all of you have been learning as well.  This week, we are going to press forward into chapter 2! 

Before we head there, I want to share with you about a chance meeting that we had yesterday. 

My sons and I stopped to get gas yesterday at Flying J, in Blacksburg.  While there, we noticed a man who was hauling a glider behind his camper.  We stopped to ask him more about it.  He spent 20 minutes telling us about aerodynamics and much more.  He is a pilot for Delta Airline 777. As a pass time, he races gliders. His call sign is DL.  I am sharing a few links with you concerning his passion.

He will be competing in the upcoming race in VA.  His name is  

DL
Dennis Linnekin

Here are some Youtube Videos in case you want to know more: This not Dennis but a friend of his.
