Original cutaway rendering of a VTOL airframe structure

Build from first principles

From internal structure to flight behavior.

The work combines aircraft architecture, documented design decisions, simulation evidence, and a clear technical presentation.

Work that can be reviewed.

Complete all three modules on time to qualify for certification. The strongest capstones may receive a follow-up interview.
