Activity: Make two airplanes using the same design. Modify the wings of one airplane to fly upward. Modify the wings of the other airplane to nosedive. Fly them!

Research Questions: How are our airplanes similar? How are they different? How do the shape of the wings affect whether it flies upward or nosedives?
