Aviation\/Aviators in the news<\/strong>: Here’s a strange vehicle that is part sail boat, part glider. In the early 1920’s a Swiss inventor named John Domenjo<\/a>z set out to create a glider that was capable of taking off using only the force of the wind. Two prototypes were built and one did actually fly, although just for a short distance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
