A virtual seminar on “You could Fly an airplane” was organised by Space Innovation Camp on Saturday (August 21).
Introduction to different parts of air-crafts, how an aircraft lands and takes off, how to fly in the sky at night, how the navigation system works, how to change direction, how a pilot controls an aircraft in a natural disaster, how to prepare to become a pilot and engineer- all these topics were discussed in the seminar.
According to the organisers, about 100 participants aged 4-12 years from all over Bangladesh were given the opportunity to participate.
The keynote speaker was Engineer Malay Kanti Bala, Aircraft Maintenance Instructor, Aviation Australia Riyadh College. He said that the whole time during the seminar, I was very happy to see the interest of children and adolescents. I believe that if we can give them the right direction, today’s children and adolescents will be able to build their careers in this sector in the future.
Ariful Hasan Apu, Crew Chief of Space Innovation Camp, said, “In the ongoing Corona situation, children and teenagers are not able to go out, so we are organising this event so that they can learn something innovative through various activities at home.”
The event was organised by Mr. Mahmud Musa, Director of Bangladesh Innovation Forum and was co-sponsored by Aviation Challenge Bangladesh.
