Gravity doesn't work like that.
Are you saying an asteroid has no gravity?
No, I'm saying what I said and you're still a nitwit loon.
Making the Gravity Anomaly Glider does not have to be an aviation
record design.
In fact it does not have to be a design at all, given that it's a
preposterous notion.
It would be allowed to use helium lift
boosting and it could be unmanned.
If it's using "helium lift" than it's not a glider, you idiot.
The question becomes the restriction of wind conditions. Mybe
1 to 2 mph wind would be allowed. Takeoff would be with a
drop-able gas motor-propeller.
Balloonists likely have no notice of this anomaly because
it would be felt as a slow wind vector.
The basic test requirement is for the Glider to be heaver than air.
I have a design for an inflatable aircraft. It allows easy
rubber/pvc/plastic welding of the wing in perfect aerodynamic form.
My only need is to figure the exact airfoil form for it. Maybe
a flying wing also.
I think a unicorn would be nice...
Dougie, this is sci.space.policy, not
rec.aviation.rubegoldberg.nutter.
