Helicopter Hunt
Helicopter Hunt uses color images, video and lots of fun activities to help kids learn what a helicopter is, what it can do and the basic parts of a helicopter.  Using shapes and colors, kids identify aircraft, either in the Museum gallery or through large photo posters, in a hunt for various helicopter attributes.

Amazing Air!
A fun, interactive workshop, that uses hands-on experiments and inquiry to help kids learn about air and how it contributes to flight.  Props demonstrate the Amazing effects of Air on various objects. 

What a Drag: The Forces of Flight
Students participate in experiments and activities that demonstrate how the four forces (weight, drag, lift and thrust) impact flying objects, and how helicopters use these forces to fly and maneuver.
