This was a tremendous achievement, remembering of course that it was before full modern GPS and the modern avionics you see even on ultralights these days. There was no Internet available in the air, and most satellite-based communications equipment was far too heavy. As for weight, which is absolutely critical in flight, even round-the-world racing sailors (e.g. in the Volvo Ocean Race) do things like hack off half of their toothbush handles to save weight.

@@Anon54387 To which Boeing planes are you referring? I remember a DC-10 (McD Douglass, not Boeing) that had a pylon failure and the ENTIRE engine fell off. My dad ribbed one of their engineers about it once, after the guy said something nasty about a Martin design (well, at least our engines stay attached), and got a dissertation on what really caused the issue. I expect even that explanation was slightly biased, but don't know. Engineers usually have no sense of humor when you poke fun at their designs, meaning it, for the most part (my experience, too). Although I had a guy (killer capable engineer, well beyond my pay grade, figuratively, and literally, and funny) from Digital Design Assurance make a joke about one aspect of one of my designs being reviewed that was both pretty darned critical, and DAMNED funny. I said to my boss as we walked out to lunch (another seriously competent dude) shortly afterward that I wasn't sure I wanted to make that change. All he said was "you gotta make it work". Right thing to say. On the way from the car back thru the parking lot to the gate I said "you know, I think I WILL make that change". He just smiled. As I said, bright guy.

Was that the actual around the world take off? If so, this vid must have started WELL down the runway (it seemed to, the full take off took FOREVER) , because I remember the wing tip scraping/loss incident. I also remember Burt yelling "Pull back, *** damnit" on the radio OVER national TV to alleviate it. I expect he was seriously frustrated because he couldn't get through as Jeanna was constantly "calling speed numbers/distances", as was intended. Nowadays nobody would give a crap, but then, not at all common. I was surprised there was no "loop", common at the time to bleep out offenses. Considering what was going on, I think that one was more than understandable (possible abort, his brother and his brother's main squeeze were pilot/co-pilot) and that plane was HUGELY marginal to begin with. Had to be, given the tech of the time (Epoxy/carbon foam composite construction). I saw the plane at Oshkosh, on its way to Air and Space and I reached out to touch the damaged skin where the winglets had disappeared (and then a lot of foam also went away) and the guy "guarding" it had a fit (not really, but he was short, and I did actually feel the graphite skin, I was trying to get an idea of the skin thickness used and was being exceedingly gentle). As a LongEZ builder and engineer I wasn't going to hurt anything, but reflecting later, he didn't know that, so I went back and apologized and told him that. He was congenial then, and probably relieved. He might have been initially worried I was trying to grab a souvenir, but there weren't many (if any) people at Oshkosh that I ran into that would even think about that...ya never know, though. If Burt had been there, and knew my background, I kinda doubt he would have cared if I touched it gently, but who knows. Amazing accomplishment for the time...one of the seriously sought after aviation prizes, and I think the closest any plane had come previously was something like three or four refuelings (not sure), circumnavigating the entire globe (the Voyager actually went a bit further due to necessary flight deviations). And yes, contrary to the "beliefs" of a few YT idiots, the world is darn near a perfect sphere, with a SMALL bulge at the equator. Gotta wonder... They think rockets don't work in space, too, even though they can look up and see satellites going overhead pretty much all night long, and the ISS is REALLY visible, sometimes almost horizon to horizon. KUDOS to that engine mount designer...prop losses give sometimes much worse outcomes than that.

The wings were barely able to get the plane airborne on Earth with a full fuel load. There are not even firm enough places for a fixed wing aircraft to be able to take off from the Martian ground. Counter rotating rotor blades would definitly work. Fixed wing aircraft may make a better reentry drop vehicle until a large chute opens or a cushioned shield is deployed.

holysmokescott Then you simply arent flying in a straight line. Must be flying in a circle to do what you are saying.

holysmokescott I wish you could draw what you are saying as it makes absolutely no sense

holysmokescott I understandnow but that isnt a straight line if you are always going east or west because the compass is always turning. That being said wouldnt gravity just suck everything across the "flat earth" to the center? why when i drop something it goes down not north

I missed the part of the flight where they flew over Antarctica.

If you are talking about your imaginary ice wall that circumferences the earth. They never seen it as they circumnavigated the earth. The only place that Antarctica really exists is in the south pole. And it is just a continent with a circumference of 12 thousand miles. Education makes a big difference. And combined with real research. But flaterthers lack those abilities. 🚀🛰🌏

@@thomas.bobby.g2918 sorry but flaterther Bob Nodel proved that the earth has a 15 degree per hour drift, by using a 20 thousand dollar ring laser gyroscope. But like a typical flaterther you will deny it, and make up some stupid excuse, to try to justify, what one of your own, found out. Something billions of us already know. Busted.

@@Mike588 Let's be kind and honest with one another and not too presumptuous. I will tell you plainly that I find a most useful tool of discovery to be observation. Observations of our changing world, as we the observers ourselves also change while observing, are useful in developing many new and exciting facts and opinions. My model of our stationary world complete with hardened enclosure above to define and absolutely limit our finite inner space, and to pattern the motions of the lights above, is called "planetarium". This working model reflects the thought of an age gone by whose knowledge and skill in engineering reflects, even today, a far greater understanding than we have yet to rediscover. I do not base my knowledge of my world on modern facts and opinions. My appeal is to the Bible. I have decided upon my own curious test of truth, not test of facts because if we are honest the facts are all alike although changeably so by nature. But what the Bible declares I take to be truth that does not change. That truth, and there is no other truth, is asserted by a subject matter expert that Himself is not subject to change, misapprehension or deception, that's the claim that I have come to believe. I appeal to the words of the creator who alone knows all truth which is itself unchangeable and eternal, like the one who alone is able to speak it.Therefore my definition of truth is whatever is asserted by the 66 books of the Bible. Is our world moving? In truth, our world is not moving. But what are the facts and opinions? What useful information can we gather by human or extended human observation? How reliably and cogently can we organize that information to where we can rightfully extend our most trusted set of assumptions? This is simply the joy of humanity, discovery, imagination, well informed speculation, and some call it learning or science. To me it's good people, great and stimulating conversations, excellent Kentucky Bourbon and fine Cuban cigars but mostly has nothing to do with truth. I am not flat earth. God never said ball, not in defining our world, but it's my non-Biblical speculations that tell me no to ball. The Bible does imply cylinder. But if I do know the truth, I know for sure that the world is not moving and therefore not spinning near 1000 mph. I intend no hostility with these words. I just thought you might rather like to talk to someone not flat earth. If you want to engage flat earth I feel that's another mindset that I don't understand.

If they ever make a movie about this, I recommend Jennifer Lawrence as Jeana Yeager and Hugh Jackman as Dick Rutan.
