Gold Distance, or Darwin award?
Yet another lawn chair flight: http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2007/...n3040131.shtml
Looks like he covered over 300km. Shall we petition to have Judy give him an honorary gold distance award? He wasn't carrying O2, so he probably didn't bust class A. Don't know about other airspace though. Note that this is his 2nd attempt, and so maybe the Darwin Award is more appropriate (although technically, you have to succeed at killing yourself to get it...) I would love to get that GPS trace...
