You guys are lucky. Louisiana schools are the worst in the U.S. by statistics. My school doesn't offer a class like that.

I remember this from when I was in H.S. (1991)... With all the equipment I am suprised they dont make a more challenging project. When I was in H.S., our rival highschool made an R.C. Plane from scratch (I was big into planes then so, this one hurt me) and they also had the local news paper document their progress.... right up to the maiden flight!

now thats a cool project... but, I guess your teacher willl need to be into it as well,huh?
