Come on the 10th! I'm curious. Will it or won't it? It'll fly all right but will it come back to earth in flames? They would need to launch it at sea or on a very large lake well away from land to be on the safe side.
May the force be with them!
Cheers and beers,

they're going to use 3 man qualified chutes for recovery... the X Foils are supposed to change position in flight.

Any landing you can walk away from is a good landing.
Since no one was on board, I guess that was a good landing. The flight sure looked good for about two seconds.

Hmmmmm, it seems good will and enthusiasm are not a substitute for a mechanical engineer and the laws of aerodynamics. I hope it was R2 on that parachute!
