If you’re unfamiliar with Flugtag, you are missing out. Red Bull’s Flugtag (German for Airshow) is an amazing craze that was first popularized in 1991. Due to popularity, it has since been run every year in over 35 cities around the world. The rules are simple: build an aircraft that meets Red Bull’s guidelines, launch yourself from a 30 foot deck, stay flying as long as you can, and eventually careen into the river below. What could be better? On September 4th, 2010, Thirty-Four teams got in line to launch their manned aircrafts over, and into the Delaware.
