Hey Wing Commander Connoisseur's!
I'm doing a writing project for my High School Physics class in which I am writing a letter describing the perfect theme park ride. Of course, I wanna do a Wing Commander ride. I am aware that they are doing a WC roller coaster in Europe based on the movie, but all of us know that the movie sucks, so I wanna do a ride based on the games… I'm thinking of doing a capsule-based motion simulator ride that is on a track to increase the G forces involved. The capsules would be self-contained, that is, everyone would be watching what's going on in the window/screens, not seeing the track or anything at all. We could set it sometime between Wing Commander II and III, and (of course), have Mark Hamill (how do you spell his last name?!) do the acting and be the "guide", of course. It would be a Star Tours kinda thing, only it wouldn't suck and it would move like that SpiderMan ride, only a LOT faster. What do you all think? I want some help doing this. Ideas, comments, criticism, whatever
Oh, here is the actual text of the assignment. You're supposed to write it in letter format. The person is name is made up (and his name strangely resembles that playboy dude…my Physics teacher has a weird sense of humor…) All typos are mine.

· Explain public need for your invention
· Tell how it will thrill and chill your audience
· Describe how the product operates
· Give detailed illustrations
· Give sample calculations to reinforce your physics description
· Explain possible dangers of ride
· State safety features that will be utilized
· How many G's does your ride go?
Cool assignment, huh? So, any ideas on how to go about this?
