Hmmm... It can't take off or land. He didn't fly over the grand canyon. He dropped out of a helicopter above the grand canyon. Step down from a glider IMO. I am disappoint.

I read somewhere yesterday that vertical takeoff would be his next project.

maybe a big slingshot, or a catapult. you will never get it into a cannon.

I think I saw something that might be useful on the ACME Imlay Corporation website.:lol8:
