These guys are flying 50,000 miles around the world crossing six
continents and 50-countries in TRIKES! Trikes are amazing aircraft
that Francis M. Rogallo originally designed back in the early 60's to
enable U.S. spacecraft to safely return to Earth. The type of 4-stroke
engines on these trikes are used to power the USAF Predator
UAV. Currently the the two trikes are in Thailand and headed north
along the coast of China and Russia.
Talk about "mas grande cajones..." Incredible!
