Art Aube's 3M Bird of Time sailplane making its maiden flight at KVMA on Nov 22, 09. Art built this in 1999 but never flew it until today. Carried aloft by Bob Chapman's Kadet Sr.
@Barnowl79 Sorry, I don't know the weight. Art passed away just before Christmas so cannot find out. Art designed and custom built all his airplanes and they were lightweight. I don't believe he was using and spoilers that day.
Do you know the weight? Great landing with or without spoilers?

The release? Good camera work but "the release"?

Sorry about that! I went back and looked at the original video and I missed that launch.
