What has happened to the Perlan project? Is the board of directors on vacation?


Essentially all components for the Perlan 2 high altitude gliders are
produced. The Board members and many others are working hard on raising
the funds required to complete the major assemblies (wings and fuselage)
for the Perlan 2 glider, it's flight testing, and the first expedition
to Argentina.

In the meantime, Windward Performance is focusing on producing the
DuckHawk and SparrowHawk gliders.
