Some recent pictures of our new and improved Hurks to include one with the boys from Buckley during some recent air to air intercept training.

You know I like my coffee sweet in the morning
and I'm crazy about my tea at night
^^^ Great pictures, Super aircraft! ^^^
So the black things are solar panels?
Obviously made for long term endurance?

The picture was taken from a press release today. I had heard that they sent a U-2 up to check the thing out. It would be great to see some data like Altitude, Time and Airspeed. Nice picture!
It looks like we can see the curvature of the earth in the picture, so yeah, cool picture, but also scary, when you realize those are likely huge solar panels, under a huge balloon, supporting xyz payload.
