	Popular Mechanics - The Ultimate Solo
		It was his daring decision to make the flight solo, in a single-engine plane, that made him a legend.
		The Breguet Range Equation decrees that the distance an airplane can fly is determined by three factors: the efficiency of its powerplant, its lift-to-drag ratio, and its fuel fraction (that is, the percentage of its takeoff weight that is fuel).
		Their attack on the first term of the Breguet Range Equation--powerplant efficiency--had been blunted.
