The Red Bull Flugtag is a competition were teams design, build, and pilot their own, entirely human-powered flying machines. Since the event began in Vienna, Austria in 1991, more than 70 Flugtags have been held around the world. The most recent one in the Midwest was held at Chicago’s North Avenue Beach. Series producer Steve Drake joined a number of central Illinois teams in Chicago and rooted them on as they showed off their vehicles, pre-flight comedy sketches, and often even funnier dance moves.
