Hi, Yes it's proving a very nice wing under power and for free flying although I'm a bit underweight for that. Thanks again for the glider - haven't used any of the spare uprights - yet!
I was filming him. But I know they use 2.5 to 3 litres/hour. Airspeed 22 to 45mph. Depends what speed he wants to fly at. This flight probably took 4 hours. Road distance would be about 150miles.
Awesome!

Go to Wikipedia and search for - Powered Hang Glider. You do need to learn to fly a hang glider first. It's not as easy as he made it look.

How long did it take to go 120 miles and how much gas did it take?

Don't worry, he's done that deliberately.
