A question to the pilot:
What about the pitch presure? Is there any pitch stability?

@seekortry Check out Leonardo's Dream machines on You Tube. Only a preveiw, it dosn't show the whole thing, but I have watched it and they got that glider to work with period materials The cross bow did not, mainly becase the guys thought they could "Improve" on it. While not the same glider, it shows, old Leo knew what he was talking about with flight. Rather this would or would not work is yet to be seen. Either way, thumbs up for the effort to these guys. At least they try it.
