Dinner & CPE - North Penn IMA

We all want to fly but none of us was born with wings!  It took the Wright Brothers years of trial and error to get into the air.  This hands-on interactive simulation will take you through the trials and errors of manufacturing your own flying machines.  In small groups, you’ll race to see which team can construct the greatest quantity of flying machines in the shortest period. During the game, you will learn about process improvement, 5S and other Lean Manufacturing concepts.
