Thanks for the heads up John!
I thought that it was a well done program except that they got a few things wrong. They highlighted the leading edges when describing the crossbars, the flying wires when describing the VG system, and a few other things. But all in all, the segment was quite professionally done. It was cool to get a peak inside Will's Wing's factory, especially their plotter. Very cool. In case you missed it, check it out here. http://www.vimeo.com/1161514
