Wind-Tunnel Lab Tilt a wing, change its shape, speed the air up — watch lift, drag, and the stall. 
Design-Fly Challenge Predict which paper-plane flies farthest before you launch — then watch the glide paths. 
Rocket Launchpad Thrust up, weight down — predict whether the rocket leaves the pad. 
Why Wings Really Lift The most-taught story is wrong — predict what really lifts a wing. All activities
Fly & experiment
Wind-Tunnel Lab Tilt a wing, change its shape, and speed the air up — watch lift, drag, and the stall happen in front of you, and read the evidence to hit each goal. Design-Fly Challenge Predict which paper-plane design flies farthest before you launch them — then watch all the glide paths at once and find out why. Rocket Launchpad Thrust up, weight down — predict whether a rocket leaves the pad, and how hard it climbs. A rocket flies only when thrust beats weight. Force Lab Predict what a force really does, then meet the free-body reality — and catch the everyday hunches that trip up how motion actually works. Why Wings Really Lift The most-taught wrong story says the top air has to "catch up." Predict what really happens — a wing lifts by turning air downward.
Practice & play
Mixed Practice A short round across the kits you have played — brought back to make it stick. FlightForge Sprint Race your OWN best on what you already know. Timer optional, no penalty for a miss. Trick Questions Brain-teasers with a twist — spot why the obvious answer is a trap. Teach the Cast Teach a flight idea to a cast member still learning it — teaching makes it stick. FlightForge Duel 2–4 players take turns on one device — same questions, highest first-try score wins. FlightForge Journey A progression trail through every kit — clear each stop of real practice, then move on. Progress Your levels, streak, and how each skill area is coming along — saved on this device. Progress report For grown-ups — a private on-device snapshot mapped to the skill areas.

😄 Brain break
Meet the cast — the characters who teach this
-
Wing Lift generation — airfoil + camber + Bernoulli AND Newton both-right complementary -
Drag Resistance — drag isn't bad, drag is information; shape-fights-air conversation -
Thrust Propulsion — every engine just throws air the wrong way (propeller/jet/rocket same trick different scale) -
Yaw Vertical-axis control — the rudder is the POLISH on the turn not the steering -
Tail Horizontal + vertical stabilizer family — quiet-control-from-the-back; the tail is why your paper plane goes straight -
Attitude Aircraft pitch attitude — the nose points where the elevator aims it; climbing is aim plus enough wing to hold it -
Bite Angle of attack and the stall — a wing grips the air at an angle; steeper grips harder until, past the critical angle, the grip lets go all at once -
Heel Banking to turn — a plane turns by leaning, not pushing sideways; tilt the wings and lift itself pulls you around the corner -
Keel Center of gravity and balance — weight pulls down, but WHERE the weight sits decides level flight versus a tumble -
Sail Gliding — no engine, so you trade height for distance; a smoother shape buys more distance per bit of altitude
