Re: FOUR, THREE, TWO, ONE . . . PTEROSAURS HAVE LIFT OFF!



Mike and I are working together on water launch. We believe we have a handle on it, but aren't ready for prime time yet. WFTP :-)

I have no trouble picturing quad launch from the ground (which is very
likely proof that I don't understanding it :)  What I'm wondering is if
there is a plausible water launch scenario.   (Presumably very splashy.)

If there isn't, I'd think that would have substantial ecological
implications for the presumed pterosaurian fisher eaters.
