Human Powered Flights

Following site provides details of human powered flights:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man-powered_flight

Details include, who made the longest sustained flights etc.

I was amazed to know that the longest flight was 115kM...ooff,,,, too long. (Daedalus 88)

However, what amazed me further was that this record was set in 1988!!

It has been more than twenty one years since that record has been broken! (today 27th Dec 2009)
