What is this thing? It's a glider! As you know, the United States Air Force Academy is located here, and many of the cadets there aspire to become pilots. They begin their studies by flying gliders. They're a common sight in the skies above the Academy grounds during the school year. Imagine flying an aircraft with nothing but the wind to hold it aloft. It's a good thing we live in such a windy place!
And now, for your listening pleasure...

Unusual to see it stored in that, but I suppose the wings are foldable. Or detachable. As long as they don't detach in flight.
