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.
http://www.redbullflugtag.com.au/ The game in the site is also quite fun and entertaining for those interested in test flying their own machines...
