- Without Visible Means of Support, 1967, free-flight two-kite
coupled set into free-flight; inspired the furthered meditation on the
system by Joe Faust, evidenced in Low & Slow and Hang Glider;
such tech was later visited for AWE by Joe Faust, Wayne German, Dave
Santos, and Dale C. Kramer. The AWECS versions involve full air-only as
well as air-water hybrids for energy mining and for travel. Uncontrolled
versions have been flown without energy mining. Hybrids begin to be seen
in powerkiting with the "lower-kite" being the complex of human-board.
Dale C. Kramer has been planning manned travel with the free
coupled-two-kite version using two ultralights or two sailplanes.
Joe Faust is proposing that NASA help develop the technology for
effecting the AWECS of such coupled-two-kite flying.
