I've worked on the CUAUV team at Cornell, the one that recruited the UAV team captain (note the subtle difference in names... one is aerial, the other is underwater). It's worth noting that the fire that destroyed the plane actually started in the Cornell team's hotel room. (Lithium batteries anyone?) Ended up causing something like $100k in damages. Whee.
