Watch this whole movie. Notice very interesting take-off in the middle
of the video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=klkFm...eature=related
How about the social aspect of soaring?

Cool! I heard about gravity launches but that is the first one I have
seen documented. Does the narration say anything about the prevailing
wind speed?

I'd like to know how they worked it out. It could
have been disastrous within a certain speed range.
