'Super Falcon' sub aims to fly underwater

349887-super-falcon-02.streams_desktop_medium.jpg


A new submarine could pull off underwater maneuvers similar to aircraft flying stunts during a Lake Tahoe expedition in October. The makers of the DeepFlight Super Falcon hope to raise $45,000 through the crowd-funding website Kickstarter to test the boundaries of submarine technology.

The two-seater submersible resembles a sleek missile or aircraft with wings, tail surfaces and ailerons...

Diving comparison relative to other creatures/devices.

This was one of Steve Fossett's pet projects until his untimely and fatal crash in the Sierra's in 2007.

Still, it's interesting... though a bit slow... could be fun :)
Like a duck... or perhaps an eel, KF
