AIAA Design/Build/Fly
The AIAA Design/Build/Fly competition is an annual event organized by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics. It challenges university teams to design, build, and fly an unmanned aircraft that meets specific mission requirements. Teams must demonstrate their engineering skills, creativity, and teamwork throughout the process.
Participants are judged based on their aircraft's performance, design documentation, and presentation. The competition encourages hands-on experience in aerospace engineering and fosters innovation among students. It serves as a platform for aspiring engineers to apply theoretical knowledge in real-world scenarios, preparing them for future careers in the aerospace industry.
