Both young men spent much of this week in Oshkosh, Wis., at AirVenture, one of the world s largest air shows.A number of young pilots began dreaming of a world record in 2007 when Barrington Irving, then a student at Florida Memorial University, completed a solo flight at age 23. Wiegand broke a record set in May by James Anthony Tan, of Malaysia, who was just shy of his 22nd birthday.Wiegand says he has no concerns about giving up his title to Campbell in a few weeks: Records are meant to be broken. The young pilots said they started with dreams of being listed in Guinness World Records
stanley cup but that became less important as they confronted long periods in the air, foul weather and a dangerous ocean. Campbell s route placed what many consider the toughest challenge 151; crossing the Pacific Ocean 151; up front. Wiegand, who did that leg last, said it was extremely challenging mentally. You re looking at the ocean; you see, `OK, there s water, and that water is deep, and if I land in that water, it s not going to be a fun time, Wiegand said.He prepared for the w Jgty Bush To Veto Bill Affecting Doctor Pay
It probably quite a bit different when you see one from inside a plane, but from down here on the ground, watching airplane evacuation slides deploy is pretty damn mesmerizing. Thankfully, Core77 just uncovered some great footage of the slides being both made and tested.

stanley mugg ng meant to bear the weight of hundreds of humans into a space roughly 2-feet-wide ain ;t easy. Throw in the fact that it needs to be air-tight and fire retardant, and it sounds damn near impossible. Which is partially why, other than the cutting of 800-some-odd pieces, nearly the entire thing is put together by hand. The really insane part, though, is the fact that these slides need to deploy鈥攊.e. be filled with 25 cubic meters of air鈥攊n under 6 second

stanley thermos of carbon dioxide and nitrogen, which pressurized to over 3,000 PSI. That about 100 times the pressure of a typical car tire. And that only a third of the air needed. The cylinder actually connects to two respirators, which use its immense pressure to suck in external air and fill the slide as fast as possible. And judging from the video below, that is one efficient system. You can check out a few more slide deploys over at Core77. [Core 77] airplaneshow its made
