Project "Skyspy"   

 

Currently students are developing this project.  Students have retrofitted a remote controlled airplane with a digital camera.  They are developing an album of aerial photos taken by the class.  Photos will be posted here along with other data as the project progresses.  Please continue to check back for updates.

 

   The class is currently split into sections or small groups.  Each group is responsible for a different area.  Right now we have groups dealing with digital photo editing, video documentation, audio development, graphic design and layout, flight training, computer aided drafting and equipment inspection.

 

Each time the class meets, weather permitting we fly and take more photos.
