How I found Brian

what I used

• the locations of animals and plants
• specific clues from the book (hatchet)
• Canada maps
• air plane websites
• maps of oil feilds
• map of New York

what I think of the original flight plane

• Originally took off in Hampton, Ny.
• Suppose to land in the oil fields of Canada were the tree line of tundra stared and the forest ended.
• I believe the closest place for the landing description is the city Yellowknife, CA
• The clues in the book helped me find the info I need to find the original flight plan.

what I think went wrong

• The book states that the soon to be dead pilot shook the plane which leads it to turn off the origanal flight plane
• I believe he went off the flight plane around the state Ottaw, CA

The calculations

• For my calculations I used mental math and a calculator
• Find the new location of the new flight plan I needed to use math
• flight plan was before the new one started

The calculations

• First I needed to find how long the original flight plan was before the new one started
• To do that I need to answer this question, how long is it from Hampton NY to Yellowstone CA
• The answer is 1,973

Measuring

• Then I needed to measure my map
• To do this need a ruler
• Now I draw a line fromHampton, Ny to Yellowstone, CA
• I then divide that line into centimeters and count how many centimeters
• The next step I did was divide 1,973 by how many centimeters. I had 17.
• I have the answer 163
• This answer shown me how many miles each centimeter is on my map.

The time

• In the book it says Brian was in the air for four hours total
• This means that we need to find a time before the flight plane.Which is 1hr and 30 min.

Now we find Brian

• First I need to find how hard he turned the plane
• The book does not give that statement so I need to give a reasonable answer.

Now we find Brian #2

• Next we take the number 163 (slide eight) and use that to tell how long the line is

were Brian is

• I believe Brian crash landed into a lake in the state Manito, CA, based on the calculations,maps,websites, and the locations.
