Sikorsky Prize Within Reach?

Watch the human powered helicopter below stay aloft for 50 seconds.  Awesome!  The Sikorsky Prize ($250,000) has remained unwon for 30 years.  One of the three requirements is staying aloft for 60 seconds or more.  They're getting very close on that front!  Another requirement is reaching 3 meters (almost 10 feet) high; they've got a ways to go on that...
