Prototype for solar-powered flight unveiled from Kansas.com: Aviation by BRADLEY S. KLAPPER
DUEBENDORF AIRFIELD, Switzerland — It has the wingspan of a Boeing 747 but weighs less than a small car. And it is powered entirely by the sun. Adventurer Bertrand Piccard on Friday unveiled the Solar Impulse, which, with its sleek white wings and pink trimming, aims to make history as the prototype for a solar-powered flight around the world. "Yesterday it was a dream, today it is an airplane, tomorrow it will be an ambassador of renewable energies," said Piccard, who in 1999 co-piloted the first round-the-globe nonstop balloon flight. The plane will take part in a series of test flights over the next two years, and based on the results of those a new plane will be constructed for the big takeoff, in 2012. In a ceremony at a military airfield near Zurich, Piccard and co-pilot Andre Borschberg hugged as the curtain was opened to give the public its first glimpse of the plane. Numerous dignitaries were in attendance, including Prince Albert of Monaco and major sponsors.
