This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

i expected it to be like a long bar with exits you can open and close by computer and that way you could then control it.. isn't 5 planes a bit complicated?
I thought so too but googling for it confirms they use 5 planes.
First company to do it with a single plane towing a long bar will be able to undercut the competition.
Or, unmanned drones.
