The film was about the 787 and featured Boeings chief test pilot. *It

See the "Schleicher Glider" video in the multimedia section.

Fake looking wings, meant to be an ASW-20 has ASW-22 looking wings
that don't flex as the G loading changes. And amusingly SSA contest ID
belongs to somebody who owns an umm PW5. Ha.

It would be really nice had they tried to do something real.
