https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1999_South_Dakota_Learjet_crash
On October 25, 1999, a chartered Learjet 35 was scheduled to fly from Orlando, Florida, to Dallas, Texas. Early in the flight, the aircraft, which was cruising at altitude on autopilot, quickly lost cabin pressure and all on board were incapacitated due to hypoxia — a lack of oxygen. The aircraft failed to make the westward turn toward Dallas over north Florida and continued on its northwestern course, flying over the southern and midwestern United States for almost four hours and 1,500 miles (2,400 km). The plane ran out of fuel over South Dakota and crashed into a field near Aberdeen after an uncontrolled descent.

Congratulations to Section hard working Section 4 students.
All but one reached their target of 5000 points
All but two have placed 47S4_ in front of their Memrise user names
I've also created a group that you can join, http://www.memrise.com/group/8775197/
but I think at this point it's easier for everyone if the 2 remaining students just change their profile names
Week 1 (used to be called week 31)
Thursday Aug 4
Period 3 with Mr. Vance
Your teacher will return the work from yesterday. You got a mark for completing as many blanks as you could.
Everyone worked hard and did well.
Now to complete the learning we will go over each blank to clarify words and check for spelling
When done you can work on Memrise. Please refer to the worksheet I gave you earlier this week
The most important points are:
- You must change your profile name to START with 47s4_
(no spaces are allowed in Memrise IDs)
- If you don't do this your Memrise score will not be found by your teacher
and you will not get a mark for Week 31 Independent Learning score (you'll get zero for week 31)
It is the student's responsibility to make this small change
(not the teacher's to find your name in the hundreds listed in the Leaderboard)
- You should work in Memrise lesson N201 for the first week ending Sunday August 7
http://www.memrise.com/course/621195/n201-english-for-aviation/
Teachers are taking the Independent Learning marks for this week from N201 review, not N202
We start N202 next week.
- You should get at least 5000 points by Sunday August 7 in order to have 100% score.
Otherwise your score will be the percentage of 5000 that you achieved by Sunday Aug 7
- After Sunday (of any week) there is no way to "make up" your Independent Learning mark for that week.
The average of all your weekly Independent Learning marks counts 5% of your N202 final grade.
Wednesday August 3, 2016
Period 6 with Mr. Vance
Our work for today is to individually LISTEN to the mp3 that goes with Unit 4, ex 1, p.29
https://mylearn.hct.ac.ae/bbcswebdav/pid-5337578-dt-content-rid-8528094_1/courses/GAENN202MasterG4748T3/Track23.mp3
And, also individually, fill in the worksheets for Unit 4 – Ex. 1
This is preparation for the listening section or your progress test.
Please try to do your own work as you will not have help on the progress test.
Procedure
- Put your name, ID, and section at the top of your paper.
- Each student brings up the mp3 on his personal iPad
- When I see that you are playing the mp3 I make a Mark of Approval on your paper
I will not mark papers without the Mark of Approval (those students didn't listen to anything)
- Complete the worksheets as you listen.
- You can help each other but do not give your paper to anyone to be copied.
- If I see your paper on another person's desk, that paper belongs to me.
I'll take it and put your name on it.
- If your friend won't give me your paper, then I will leave them both with your friend
and will not collect either (you both get zero).
- When you have finished please give your paper to the teacher for marking later

Task 2
You will be given a hard copy of the N202 Course Information
Please put your name and mil ID no. on the last page, sign it, and return it to your teacher
We need to complete the following at some point in Week 31
Students need to download and install the following apps:
- Socrative
- Voice Record Pro
- As for Memrise, if you have problems with the website, download the app. Otherwise, use the website.
Then we will continue with a general review of term 2 vocabulary (Units 1-3) by using any of the online exercises from the section of 'Links to external websites' (look at the content that says Units 1 - 3).
https://mylearn.hct.ac.ae/webapps/blackboard/content/listContentEditable.jsp?content_id=_5337514_1&course_id=_76128_1&mode=reset
We need to go through this again because this term focuses more on developing speaking and listening skills and you must use all the Aviation vocabulary you have learnt so far to get a passing mark.
We will start the Unit 4 N202 materials towards the end of the week (days 3-5)
