Do you drop the fertilizers the pilot produce in the toilet, down onto the fields?

Much appreciation, @ Wired UK. I really enjoyed Bertrand Piccard's detailed explanation of the cockpit controls and how he navigates the Solar Impulse 2 throughout the extended flight. This was incredible and quite an honor.

Just a question, how do you maintain your spatial orientation and concentration if you are waking up every 20 minutes to check if everything is alright. Because as far as I know, without REM sleep, you will eventually lose your adaptation to your environment and will not be able to sustain your piloting skills. So, do you really wake up every 20 minutes or at least getting 2 hours of straight sleep to refreshen your brain? Best regards.

my teacher Mr.Taylor made us do a report on you guys because he thought you were amazing. He made a website called sumsup and made a story for you!

@briangraves8418 6 лет назад

He says every 20 minutes but you know he goes out for hours at a time. Might be FAA compliance

Seems like a lot of trouble to go to, to get out of the way of the four women in his life for a bit of peace and quiet. Most men go fishing.

The ultimate peace. He didn't even wanna see any fish.

@benmcdonnell4167 7 лет назад

Very beautiful, but how much pollution was generated to MAKE that thing?

@briangraves8418 6 лет назад

I guess we should shut down all the battery plants too. You're right. thebestschools.org/magazine/15-logical-fallacies-know/

@kylewebber2434 5 лет назад

What an impractical system! The amount of material and capital to build this thing is ridiculous, all to carry one person? I think the technology could be put to better use, but this could be the first step to innovating such equipment for feasible application to aerospace.
