Some people just dream; others realize their dreams.  My friend Eric Raymond falls into the latter category.  Below is a link to his latest video of flying a solar-powered electric 2-place motorglider.  A top-notch aeronautical engineer, he designed the plane and built it himself.  I actually even helped a tiny little bit in the construction and have have flown with him in the plane a few times.  This flight took in NE Italy.  He and his wife live just across the border in Slovenia.
