Default What Glider would Santa fly?



Googled "How much does Santa weigh".

Multiple sites put him at 5' 7" and 260 pounds with some sites giving a range of 350 pounds or more. I think gross weight could be an issue to consider here...along with potentially needing to get on some cholesterol meds asap. BMI of 40.72...He's only a few cookies away from a massive heart attack.

"Based on years of flight profile data that they’ve gathered from radar and satellite tracking, NORAD has estimated that Santa Claus is 5 feet 7 inches (170 centimeters) tall and weighs approximately 260 pounds (118 kilograms) before eating and drinking all those milk and cookies at the houses he visits. Santa would have a BMI of 40.72 at that height and weight. He’s shorter than I thought he would be if that’s his true height."
