Default Red Bull Flugtag - Sydney - April 6th

A link to the following and a heads up for those interested in seeing experimental flying machines test flown off a ramp near Farm Cove (between Sydney Opera House and Mrs Macquarie's Chair) for an attempt at sustained overwater flight.

The game in the site is also quite fun and entertaining for those interested in test flying their own machines...
