Aerolane transport glider & 'wake surfing'

[TsrJoe]

Could the 'flying piano' help transform air cargo?

A Texas start-up is developing cargo gliders that would be towed behind a jet.

Hi,

Seems they are trying to solve basically the same problem as this historic project:

Spontaneously, I'd think the old project made a lot more sense ... might be just that the 'flying piano' article doesn't do it justice, of course.

That Laurel and Hardy skit comes to mind.
