GlobalFlyer is refuelled on the runway before takeoff. Photograph: Jane Perrone
My story about the successful takeoff is here and you can watch the video of the takeoff here: you'll see the plane on the runway as it is prepared for takeoff, the assembled media scrum, and then GlobalFlyer taking off in the Kansas dusk to the whoops of the assembled crowds. It was cold. Very cold, so please excuse the slight camera shake. If you're interested, the footage was taken by me on the trusty Guardian Unlimited Sony Handycam.
