So something to see with Bertrand Piccard ???

[P51vsFw190]

Nope

MIT Daedalus, and James may have played some role in rebuilding one of them for a museum. Mexchiwa was very close to it, and I give it over to him in the likely case you admit I'm correct.

[P51vsFw190]

Sniperton, you got it spot on! It’s your turn.

I have the original model as built by United Technologies Corporation in recognition of the world record distance flight that was set in 1988.

The model has a 10 foot, 7 inch wingspan.

I saved it from a dumpster about five years ago and have kept it in my possession since.

In the near future it will go on display at the MIT Museum in Cambridge.

Mex was very close but MacCready never worked on the MIT project.

Wow, very cool model, James! How could anybody throw that in a dumpster? Nice to hear that my old alma mater has found a home for it.

Open house

An easy one...

[P51vsFw190]

Okay, so since nobody has tried on this very easy one, I will.

Santos Dumont 14bis

[UberDemon]

Correct Sir.

[P51vsFw190]

Open round!

[ZtheE]

I'll go
Here's one from my photograph folder, cropped it to make it harder



Saw it in person in July
