Parts of an Airplane

The next two weeks we will be reading "To Fly: The Story of the Wright Brothers". The Wright Brothers' airplane was very simple compare to airplanes today. However they still have the same parts (tail, body and wings.) Below are some photos of an airplane. This is a modern day airplane. Look at the pictures and see if you can guess which photo is the rudder, and the hangar. See if you can name the other pictures.
