Careers in Aviation Guest Speaker

Posted 6th Nov 2024
Author Conor Leahy (Treasurer)

Last week we were delighted to be joined by apprentice aircraft mechanic Brian Berney, from Ryanair. Brian gave us a fascinating insight into the kind of work carried out on an aircraft maintenance line and what it takes to keep Ryanair's planes flying safely. We had the opportunity to see a completely different side to the aircraft that we all travel in so often, and got some very interesting answers to our many questions.

Thank you Brian!

Rocketry Workshops 1 & 2

Posted 29th Oct 2024

Huge thank you to everyone who attended our model rocket workshops over the past two weeks, it was great to see such enthusiasm for rocketry!

We had an excellent demonstration of how to use OpenRocket software, and everyone had the chance to design their very own model rocket from scratch. 

Our next workshop will involve construction and assembly of the models (date to be announced soon), where everyone will hopefully leave with a finished rocket in hand.

See you then!

Hey guys!

Thanks to everyone who showed up to our first rocket building and simulation workshop. We hope you all had a good time and will show up for part 2 of the workshop.

For those who couldn't attend we had a great time putting together a model rocket, which needs to be finished off in the next workshop and then built a virtual version and ran a flight simulation of the rocket we built in OpenRocket.

If this sounds like something that you would enjoy then please feel free to come along to our next workshop.

Date and time for the next workshop will be announced early next week.
