Paul MacCready's Human- and Solar-Powered Aircraft | Gallery | Gossamer Condor

I started following the Gossamer Condor project in January 1977, at Mojave Airport, in southern California. Greg Miller was the project pilot at that time. By March 1977, the project had moved to Minter Field, Shafter, California (near Bakersfield). Greg was still the pilot for early testing, but Bryan Allen became the project pilot when Greg left to resume bicycling racing. The Kremer Prize flight was accomplished on August 23, 1977, Bryan Allen, pilot. These photos are presented in low-resolution form.
