Hang- Loose glider Woodstock I flies skyward
Mt Vernon Township High School aerospace class built Woodstock I, a hang-glider flown by student Ernie Lewis. A crosswind on maiden flight caused the left wing to break. Lewis was unhurt. Rick Dulaney and Stan Mayo had earlier flights, and the class vows to rebuild for another launch. The incident occurred on Otto Lilienthal's birthday, echoing historic early heavier-than-air flight.
