— 28 miles in 19 hours!-—

This is progress? Sheesh.

You try keeping a bird in the air for 19 hours without aerial refueling ... or even burning any petroleum fuel at all.

Get back to us when you have accomplished that.

Do at least try not to get stuck on the stupid idea that the only use for an aircraft is to move things from "point A" to "point B".

This is progress?

Yes, it is. Huge progress, in fact.
