Post by: fsaviator on April 10, 2015, 08:09:26 AM
I didn't realize that there was a world record involved here...  Something to shoot for:

and more crazy people....

I found the comments better than the articles.

I know of Matt and his "worldflight setup".  I was not aware there is an actual world record.  That is impressive!

Yeah, kudos for a job well done and the donations to charity... but perhaps the world record should also be for "Most understanding significant other"!
