I am a 14-year old interested in aeronautics engineering, can anybody help me please?

Question

I am interested in aerodynamics and engineering aircraft, but I don't have many informational resources readily avaliable to turn to. Can anybody help me please? Thanks, it is greatly appreciated!

Thanks for your answers so far! There are currently multiple electives avaliable in my school, maybe I could ask at the office if they could arrange such a class as aerodynamic studies or something, because in the "Paxton Patterson lab" in science, flight as a module is only avaliable to students a grade lower than me now.

Answer 1

There's an organization that exists for people exactly like you: the Junior Engineering Technical Society (JETS). Click the first two links below. I think you'll find the others interesting, as well.

Answer 2

Take Physics, chemistry, biology, math in high school as much as you can. Get good grades in that. Dont go reading any books on aerodynamics or the like you wont understand those yet anyhow. Get the basic tools in math and science while in HS.

Then go to like Purdue Univ. in Lafayette Indiana, they have a bunch of engineering grads there who studied that engineering and went on to become astronauts. They also have a summer program for potential engineering students elgible in 10th grade . June thru July

Answer 3

Well i know that in my city there are actually high schools in which rather than taking a normal elective you can take alternate ones such as at one, Rancho, you can specialize in medical or aviation (both flying and engineering). I would recommend looking into such alternate schools in your area.

Answer 4

first: go to library and borrow books on airplanes
do a good study on math and physics
read books on aerodynamics and fluid dynamics - will be useful

Answer 5

We can help, but what do you need help with?
