A nice article on the Perlan 2 project at Oshkosh. Congrats to the Project organizers, staff, and supporters. Good exposure to gliding.


A beautiful sailplane designed by Greg Cole, it not easy to design an sailplane that can fly at these altitudes. Another aircraft design that is way ahead of its time, like the Duckhawk.
