Recently Room 1 have been learning about flight. We all had to chose a topic I chose the wing suit and this is it. We were trying to group our ideas into paragraphs - how do you think I did?


In 1930 a 19 year old  American, Rex G Finney, invented the predecessor of the modern wing suits and he used it to feel the exhilaration of jumping out of planes in a specially made wing suit.

Wing suit flying is a sport of flying the human body through the air using a specially made jump suit called the wing suit, which adds surface area to the body to enable a significant increase to lift. Modern  wing suits were first developed  in the late 1990’s. They create  the surface area with fibre in between the arms and legs.

I think that wing suits are an awesome way to feel exhilaration.
