Hey all, just thought I would share this video of a solar powered plane i found on youtube. Some of you may have seen it before as it has been around since 2003. It was built by NASA. It's quite nice, check it out.

i saw this video long back on discovery, but will this prototype which actually flew will be able to take place of any utility plane (that includes, commercial, cargo, arm forces)???

yep! it was called helios, and it was involved in some fatal accident i guess. that was long back so dont remember it cleqarly
