The flight ended in the water (7 meters from Perissa Beach on Santorini, according to the official record), when increasing gusty winds caused a torsional failure of the tail boom. Lacking control, the airplane then pitched nose-up, and another gust caused a failure of the main wing spar. The pilot swam to shore. Pilot used hydration drink during flight. This feat was equivalent to two back-to-back marathons. MIT Daedalus The MIT Aeronautics and Astronautics Department's Daedalus
