Spirit of Butts Farm crosses Asstlanti...uh...
Model plane goes transatlantic
The plane flew at 270 metres over the Atlantic Ocean on autopilot An international team of model aeroplane enthusiasts say they have managed the first successful flight by a lightweight remote-controlled plane across the Atlantic. US, Canadian and Irish engineers worked together to ensure "The Spirit of Butts Farm" - named after its testing site - landed safely in County Galway, Ireland on Monday 11 August, some 38 hours after it took off from Canada. The balsa wood and mylar plane flew 3,039 kilometres (1,888 miles) using satellite navigation and an autopilot system overseen by engineers and radio operators using laptop computers. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/3145577.stm |
