Assignment Task: After reviewing the background information on density altitude, develop a structured and engaging initial post that covers one of the following topics below (read ALL of the options before choosing one):

1. Present a practical, understandable definition (NOT the dictionary definition) of density altitude, and discuss the atmospheric factors that affect density altitude.

2. Outline the hazardous effects of a high-density altitude on aircraft performance. Include one or more images or short videos that enhance your post content (provide the URL of the image(s) or video(s)).

3. Outline airport locations, seasons, and times of the day of potentially high-density altitude conditions. Include one or more images or short videos that enhance your post content (provide the URL of the image(s) or video(s)).

4. Summarize a high-density altitude-related incident or accident within the aviation industry.

Embed at least one graphic or video that helps visualize some aspect of your initial post discussion.

1. To embed a YouTube video, simply paste the video URL into your post.

2. To embed images from the web directly into the discussion post, review the Canvas resource, How do I embed an image in a discussion reply as a student? (Canvas Community)

3. If you have trouble embedding the image into your post, you can simply insert the image URL directly into your post.

4. To avoid "thunder stealing", try to stick to the topic of your option selection without going (too much) into a discussion on the other options.
