Notice the lack of concrete anywhere in sight.

Also notice the difference between the two aircraft. Tom's airplane on the right has a tail and control surfaces that move. He controls the airplane with a control stick and pedals. These move the control surfaces on the wing and tail - the ailerons, elevators, and rudder.

By contrast, my trike on the left, is a "weight-shift aircraft". I have no tail. I control the aircraft by moving my weight relative to the wing, just like a hang glider. Both machines have about the same performance.
