The Icon A5 (pictured) is part of a fresh generation of design-led light aircraft shaking up an industry with new concepts.

For my current event I picked to do mine over ICON A5 which is a new type of aircraft. This aircraft costs about 207,000 dollars but is an amazing piece of technology. While equip t to fly thousands of feet into the air, its like no other air craft, the steering is i identical to a cars steering made easier to learn, taking about thirty hours to almost master. Then for the throttle and controls is similar to a plane. To take off it works like a plane with skis on it, it builds up speed flying across the water and raises in altitude from there. While only weighing 1,510 pounds and is only 23 feet long, so storing this amazing toy would be pretty easy compared to any other air craft., it would be similar to storing a boat in the process you use.

Today -- finish up your Lucid Press assignment from Thursday.  Make sure all three of your documents are posted to last week or today's blog post.

**If you finish early, please work on something else quietly.  Thanks & see you on Thursday!


For me, I found that Canvas Site was easier to use. A pro for that was probably the variety of designs they had for templates. But a con was a large chunk of their templates you had to pay for. Lucid press was pretty good the best part about them is you did not have to pay for most of their templates. But a con for them was it was a little more difficult to work with. For the final product, I felt that Lucid press looked more professional through the designs and just overall. Overall if I had to pick one of the two to use again I would pick Lucid press, just because of the aspect of it looks more professional. 

Sweet Heart Weekend 2/14

Sweetheart weekend I did not go to the dance instead I went on a hunting trip with some friends and family. That Friday after school, about 12 of use pilled into cars and drove five hours to Cuba Kansas. Cuba, is about 24 miles outside of Nebraska. We went bird hunting for three days on public land around the cabin we were staying at. It was a lot of fun and one of the luckier hunting trips I have been on. Almost all of us maxed out on our limit at least one day that weekend.
