  • Looks like they simply arnt going fast enough or his center of gravity is too far forward

  • That looks like a great project. Using the water way for the glider is a great idea.

  • there is no constant power

  • @ngodline12 while he is in the air, a support beam could break

  • video starts at 2:40

  • glad to see he's got a helmet and life jacket. what can possibly go wrong?

  • ya but water is softer then pavement

  • Why not make it a land plane, instead of a sea plane? Most gliders take off from land. It's almost impossible for a glider to take off from water.

  • Crazy projet, but what a fun! You probably needed 2 knots more speed.

  • Yes obviously it wont fly that high, but i like the idea to bring fun enjoyment in the family and friends. you guys are doing good.
