The article mentions "weight turbulence" I think that should read "wake turbulence. Shouldn't be an issue unless Perlan plans on boxing the wake.


Journalists never know what they're writing about. They mishear and don't understand anyway. They also never show their article to anyone with any knowledge of the subject matter before publishing. You see the very common result.
