If one was to look into the sky today, there would more than likely b an aircraft of some sort flying above. While many of us take no consideration as to the immense amount of technology put into each and every aircraft, just to fly, there are individuals, still working every day to create new technology that makes what used to seem like just a farfetched dream, a reality. Even over one hundred years after the first powered flight in 1903, new frontiers of flight, are yet to be discovered. The…

The Blueprints for The avro arrow Disappear and Models Destroyed Nov. 20, 2017 Fanny Schmitt Aylmer - Roughly forty years ago Canadian engineers finally had a breakthrough in technology. After these accomplishments, the plans and models were destroyed and stolen for selfish gain. From the stolen blueprints, they were able to create a better aircraft that was able to fly 1,060 mph and reach roughly 15,500 feet in altitude. Astonishingly, out of the Avro Arrows 120 built, only one survives,…

All I could see was the ground coming closer and closer to my face as I fell for the first time off the back of a horse. There was a teenage boy jumping in front of me, trying to stop the run away and keep me from hurting anything on my very small, frail body, but to no avail. I hit the ground hard, gasps and screams echoing in my ears and ate a few mouthfuls of dirt, sand and horse manure. Being only 5 and having the gritty feeling of sand stuck between my teeth I burst into tears and lay on…

Hanging on the wall at my eye level, a vivid painting depict a mountain lion, a dog, and a man caught my attention. Sitting in front of the tree, a man is holding a colt revolver on his right hand and a bowie knife on his left, the weapons he possibly used to kill the mountain lion lying in front of him. A black dog is sitting obediently next to the man. As the man’s mixed facial expression triggered my curiosity to find out more of his story, I took a step closer to this painting, Peter Quivey…
