Looks like Burt Rutan at Scaled Composites is going
to get the record for the highest, non-government glider flight on June 21 when he sends his glider (via rocket power) into space. Details at http://www.xprize.org/ Calling for return glide of less than 30 minutes to get back down from over 300,000 feet. Sounds like the pilot can thermal as well as I can...that is, like I am flying a brick. |
