Publisher's Synopsis
Airplanes and aviation have progressed a long way since the 120-foot flight by Orville Wright on December 17, 1903, at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. Airlines worldwide have sprouted since the first US airline began operating between Tampa and St. Petersburg, Florida, on January 1, 1914. Today supersonic aircraft fly routinely across the oceans, and more than two million people are employed in aviation, the aerospace and air transportation industries. Teachers need additional tools to encourage students of today to learn strategies and techniques useful in gaining employment in the Aviation industry. "The Sky Has No Limit" is such a tool. It will encourage parents, teachers, and student understanding of aviation and its ability of creating excitement in classrooms. Airplanes inspire youth; properly harnessed that inspiration will spill into other academic areas; Language Arts, Mathematics, Science and Social Studies. Aviation subjects in the classroom will contribute to minimize the lack of learning in schools.
