World-class pilot Yoshihide Muroya Sky sports class for elementary school students September 13 21:44
Yoshihide Muroya, a world-class pilot of small aircraft based in Fukushima City, opened a sky sports class for elementary school students so that he could learn about the appeal of sky sports and the importance of taking on challenges.
86 children from the 3rd to 6th grades of elementary school participated in the event held on the 13th at the airfield "Fukushima Sky Park" in Fukushima City.
The children first tried to assemble a Styrofoam airplane while receiving advice from Mr. Muroya in the hangar, and learned the principle of turning the airplane by adjusting the angle of the wings by themselves.
After that, I went outside and watched Muroya's exhibition flight, which was also the annual champion at the "Air Race" world championship.
Unfortunately it was a cloudy sky on the 13th, but Mr. Muroya performed techniques such as rolling and back flight while turning over the airfield, and the children cheered and waved toward Mr. Muroya. I was watching while watching.
A boy in the third grade of elementary school who participated said, "It was cool that the plane rolled around. I thought I was good at maneuvering."
Mr. Muroya said, "I want children to learn the principle of flying airplanes by playing with handmade airplanes and feel closer to Sky Sports."
