On October 22, 2022, the iLEAD Lancaster community was visited by a full-scale glider, an aircraft that flies without an engine! Part of the 8th grade Soaring Aeronautics Project involves an on-site glider event. Pilots from Skylark North Gliding School interacted with our learners, who had the opportunity to see the glider up close. Through this project, learners explore physics through the lens of flight and eventually have the opportunity to experience their first flight in a glider!
