It was truly down to the wire as the Canadian team and an American team in Maryland worked frantically to meet the X-Prize requirements. You will see the pilot leaning to one side as he becomes more and more exhausted. At first I thought he was simply favoring one leg because of a cramp or something. Then I realized: I think he was FLYING the thing via weight shift! Simple is good! Congrats!
