This is a project which is intended to use the functions of Pro/DESKTOP to design a jet aircraft

without having to resort to complicated assemblies.

Pro/DESKTOP enables pupils (and teachers) to communicate a complex 3D model in a fairly straightforward but highly accurate and attractive way.

It enables pupils to be able to draw an aircraft in a single session with a high level of success. This will motivate them to produce components for future assembly drawings.

Although this project focuses on the design for an aircraft many of the techniques are transferable to other areas of the Technology curriculum.

CONTEXT
The Eurocollaborator project has an extensive brief but can be refined to two main points.

• To carry 500 passengers in comfort.
• To be capable of flight.
• To be innovative – an aircraft for the 21^st century.

PROBLEM
Design a concept aircraft model – the sky is the limit!

CONSTRAINTS
Your imagination!
