A new episode is released every week. The podcast “110 Histórias | 110 Objetos” (“110 Stories, 110 Objects”) is part of the Público newspaper podcasts.
Today’s episode (#96) – 2nd June 2023: “110 Histórias | 110 Objetos” (“110 Stories, 110 Objects”) – Técnico’s First Model Aircraft.
Técnico’s first model aircraft was built by Técnico students to compete in the second edition of the Air Cargo Challenge, in 2005. This competition, which was also created in 2003 by Técnico students, has a major dimension today. The mission of building model aircraft to fly with maximum load would give a boost to the Aerospace Engineering Students’ Organisation (AeroTéc). So as not to forget that achievement, the students’ organisation still keeps the first model aircraft, in the basement of the Mechanics Building (III), at Alameda campus. The work developed by AeroTéc has allowed the team to build rockets, turbines and even other model aircraft capable of detecting fires.
