Great! I'd love to see the doubletakes when it's flown around a bunch of people.
Lynn, I heard a comedian ask, "What would prompt anyone to say, 'Look! Up in the sky! It's a bird!' in the first place?" The quote hasn't been the same since.

That's interesting. That's a different one than the one in California.
It's real. It's all over the California news. The builder is a real estate salesman from San Diego and builds stuff like that for a hobby. He asked himself, "what would people notice most?" and he figured it would be Superman.

The first one could be real - looks like some sort of very lightweight plastic construction, maybe polystyrene with a protective outer membrane.
Over the last couple of years the technology of model aircraft really seems to have blossomed - see e.g. the little model helicopters that can be flown controlled by a smart phone. I think the motors and batteries have improved a lot, so weird stuff like flying supermen is now a lot easier to pull off.

Those are quite big! I didn't realize when I saw the first video that it was that large. I think they both need to work on their landing though <<both on their chests>>.
Thanks for sharing.
