On December 17th, 1903 the Wright brothers revolutionized our world when they piloted their first powered flight that went up 20ft, lasted for 12 seconds and traveled a distance of 120ft. Now, almost 106 years later, two Swiss inventors have achieved a similar feat, with the successful maiden voyage of the world's first piloted solar-powered airplane - the Solar Impulse.

    No way they'd put the props and motors on the stabilizer.. The vertical and horizontal tails would have to be made so strong that they would prove too heavy t be practical for such a lightweight machine. The trailing edge of the main wing would be a superior location.
