It’s that time of year again! Red Bull Flugtag is an awe-inspiring mesh of aviation and lunacy. Following in the footsteps of the founding fathers of flight, 33 teams will hurtle their human-powered aircrafts down a 30-foot ramp and attempt to slip the surly bounds of Earth. Inevitably all of them will succumb to gravity and crash into the chilly waters of the Bay, but for brief moments, some of them may actually succeed. Hangars will open at
11 a.m. and “flights” are scheduled to run from 1 to 3:30 p.m. with an awards ceremony to follow.
