Those two videos are amazing! The first one, in particular, shows that the glider was built as close to the original as possible. To think of the engineering skills that Lilienthal had to have in order to create the original!! And all the testing they did on the repro had to supply so much interesting data. Otto himself would have LOVED to have seen that process and learn the results.

Thanks for posting those vids ARP!
