You are Professor Von Witt, inventor of contraptions. You are coming up for review to become a Senior Board Member on the board of IOCC. (Inventors of Contraptions Committee) They will be holding a competition for the position. You will have to enter the competition and come up with a flying machine to demonstrate to the board. Good Luck!
You have been waiting for this opportunity for a long time, and now is your chance to become a respectable board member; rather than just another crackpot inventor.
