The Airplane Launcher Kit is a great training aid for teaching Statistical Process Control, Process Capability Studies, Hypothesis Testing (e.g. 1 Sample t-Test, 2 Sample t-Test, Analysis of Variance, Correlation & Regression Analysis), Multiple Regression Analysis, and Full & Fractional Factorial Design of Experiments. The Airplane Launcher Kit includes: 1 Launch Pad made in the U.S.A from beautiful mahogany wood (W 5.5” - L 16.5” - T 0.75”), 2 Balsa Wood Model Airplanes made in the U.S.A., 1 Assortment of 8 Rubber Bands of different Colors and Tensions, 1 Tape Measure (26" or 8m), 1 Utility Knife, and Instructions. The entire Airplane Launch Kit weights about 3 lbs. For details visit www.oec-us.com .

The objective of Airplane Launcher Project could be as follows:
 At the end of the project will be a competition. The competition consist of a 7
minute presentation and a demonstration of the team’s flight airplane
capabilities.
 There will be 3 attempts per team at 3 different distances (9 total flights) to hit
a target.
 The target may be anywhere between 5 and 15 feet from the launch pad.
 Reasonable set-up time for each shot is allowed during fly-off (2 minutes for
the initial launch, 1 minute between shots). No practice shots during the
competition.
 The plane must use ALL parts in the kit (no aero-bullets!)
 All design changes and permanent modifications must be approved by the
instructor prior to use
 The desired result is to hit the target with plane in flight. If the plane hits the
ground prior to impact the hit will not be counted.
 Have Fun!

7. Airplane Launcher Kit
The Airplane Launcher Kit includes:
 2 Guillow Balsa Wood Model Airplanes made in the U.S.A.
 Simple assembly (less than a minute & no
tools) needed at the start of the project
 A notch needs to be cut (with the included utility knife)
at the bottom front part of the plane for the rubber band
 Soars beautifully over 25 feet !!!
Cut one to three notches
here for rubber band
