Things that Fly and Flights of Human Ingenuity

Things that Fly and Flights of Human Ingenuity

Flying things are just amazing, are they not?

I mean so amazing that a jumbo jet can stay up in the air.

This show explores flight and how it works, from simple paper aeroplanes to the wonders of rocket travel via weird and wonderful animals, even plants and through our own exceptional machines. There will be pretty pictures, there will be demonstrations, there will be things flying round the hall.

Don’t worry I’ve assessed the risks.
