| Delta Dart |
I have an after school club with a few students and its called "Things That Fly". Right now we are building Delta Darts. I built one beforehand so I'd know where the technical parts of the build are (mostly the cutting of balsa wood) and to motivate the students.
This afternoon I wound up the rubberband a couple of hundred twists and let her fly!

| easily clearing the basketball court covering |
It climbed to altitude, higher than the basketball court covering (about 8 meters/25 feet).
 |
| saved by the tree |
Thought I lost it on the roof but it came gliding down and got snagged in a tree where I recovered it.

| recovery |
It took a few more flights after that. Good fun!
