Paul MacCready: Flying on solar wings
http://www.aeronews.tv/?p=77
Paul MacCready - aircraft designer, environmentalist, and lifelong lover of flight - talks about his long career. After his record- breaking work on human-powered aircraft in the 1970s, with the Gossamer Condor and Gossamer Albatross, MacCready's attention turned to addressing a problem he calls "Nature vs. Humans." The result: a pioneering electric car, refined alternative energy sources, and (bringing his enthusiasms full circle) a breathtaking solar plane. Rocco Caruso Aero Gazette www.gazette.aero
