I am a grad student working on a similar project and I am wondering why their spruce goose did not fly.  I'm hoping that I can still get in touch with the visionaries behind the project or any other individuals who are already involved in such an enterprise or may be interested in getting involved.  Any info I can get to keep me on track will keep our recycling effort alive.
