Description: Introduces young readers to the mechanical science of jet planes that recreates an airplane ride while explaining how powerful engines, specially designed wings, and cockpit controls work together to enable a jet's flight. From the engines that provide the power and the wings that lift the plane off the ground to the cockpit controls and passenger cabin, this book shows how these modern marvels work and what makes them stay in the air.
