    Design-Build-Fly is an annual contest hosted by the American Institute for Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA), and sponsored by Cessna Aircraft Company and Raytheon Missile Systems. Design-Build-Fly challenges college students to create a small aircraft to meet a set of requirements. During the 2016-2017 academic year, more than 100 undergraduate student teams from around the world have been challenged to design, build, and flight test an aircraft which can carry a payload of hockey pucks and which can be folded to fit into a small storage tube. Eight months of designing and building will culminate in a 4-day fly-off in April in Tucson, AZ. This competition enables students to extend and demonstrate technical skills learned in the classroom, as well as develop practical teamwork skills. Eagle Prize Awar
