100% Solar-Powered Airplane Ready To Go Around the World

At last! We can send those stupid British Airmen home!

You can say that again!

All they ever did is spoiled or racked things wherever they went all in the name of progress (slav'....I mean business). They even bragged about it how successful they were conquering the world compare to the French and the others.

At that altitude they must need oxygen. How are they going to generate enough for the ~ 24 day trip?

V good point!

I guess they'll sell the oxigen set as an optional kit to fly at such altitude.

It's a pity that its picture is not a full one however, it had a successful forerunner back in the early 1980s.

It was a more simplified type; the motor(s) were the size of a beer can put in a tube structure from which the propeller shot forward and the fully enclosed cock-pit dangled directly under the wing (covered with solar cells) and the tail section located with the rear wings on the back end.

It could climb 3000feet and don't remember the speed.
