Aircraft Carrier Launch

Students were tasked to build both a plane and a slingshot (to launch said rocket!), using cardboard, sticks, tape, rubber bands, and PVC pipe. After two hours of building and testing, Teams were given two hours to plan, design, build, and test their aircraft before engaging in fierce competition with the other groups where they had three chances to adjust their launching techniques and see who could fly the farthest!
