I wonder how much it weighs... being made of wood and all, and for that matter, if it will float :P

Hey if you go to their website this project is pretty impressive. They weave their own wood composite panels. Many woods do have strength properties that surpass an equal mass of carbon fiber.

Looks phenomenal for a school project. I just hope it's not set to fire by the massive engine they are using, or by cigarettes.
