Here's some of the text (and photos from the report):

The flapper, as it's affectionately known, sustained flight over about a third of a kilometre for 14 seconds at about 10:20 a.m. before being hit by a crosswind and almost flipping over, damaging the nose and front wheel on the runway at Downsview Park.

Wahoo. I'm away. Into the record books for me...


Uh oh. Here comes that crosswind...


Oh sh*t.


Rats. More work needed.
