FYS 133 Human Flight: Magic and Madness

Do you dream of flying or does that terrify you? Is flying just the fastest way to travel or something more? This seminar studies the innovators whose vision and relentlessness enable human flight. Students are invited to scrutinize their own perceptions of flight, as well as the influence of culture, media, and world events on those perceptions. Economic, environmental, and social impacts are considered to ascertain the role of human flight in a sustainable future.
