The first term we're looking for means "a journey through the air", for example in a plane:
My flight 1 was cancelled, so I had to sleep in the airport.
Next, we want you to find a job title or profession:
People who work with machines, structures, systems, etc. are called engineers 2.
Now we're looking for a term to describe any vessel which travels through the sky (helicopters, planes, etc.):
The latest aircraft 3 are equipped with three television screens per passenger. (HINT: the right answer is NOT "airplane", "airship", or "aeroplane"!)
This verb means "to take control of illegally", "to commandeer", or "to rob during a journey":
The plane was hijacked 4 by five mice who then flew it to the nearest cheese farm.

1 flight: "Flight" is the term we were looking for here. A "flight" is a journey through the air. It is the noun associated with the verb "to fly". Note that the word "flight" rhymes with "might", "height", and "white"!
2 engineers: "Engineers" is the correct answer here. There are lots of different types of engineer: software engineers (who work with computers), structural engineers (who design bridges, buildings, etc.), aerospace engineers (who design aircraft and spacecraft). If you study "engineering" at university, you can become an "engineer" (unless you fail!).
3 aircraft: "Aircraft" is the right answer. "Aircraft" is a general term which can be applied to any flying vessel or vehicle, such as helicopters, airships, and planes. Note that the plural of "aircraft" is simply "aircraft"! The term "craft" can also be used to describe vessels which travel in the sky, in space, or in or through water (boats, ships, submarines, etc.).
4 hijacked: "Hijacked" is the term we were looking for here. To "hijack" a plane is to take control of it, usually in order to fly it to a different destination. "Hijacking" is most often associated with terrorists "hijacking" planes, as they did on September 11th 2001 in the USA. A person who takes control of a vehicle in this way is called a "hijacker".
5 wingspan: "Wingspan" is the right answer. The "wingspan" of a plane is the distance between the ends of each of the plane's wings. This term can also be used in the natural world, to describe how wide birds are when their wings are fully extended. Example: "The blackbird's wingspan is around 36cm".
