Flight close to the sea surface will reduce the induced drag and therefore the energy cost of flight [82], but perhaps more importantly, means that ocean waves become a potentially important consideration.
Furthermore, Rh has extremely short hand wings, enabling highly manoeuvrable search flight close to vegetation, while Rm has rather long hand wings [57] that allow fast and economic commuting flight, but come at an increased energetic cost for manoeuvring flights in vegetation [58].
Guests ride in a prone position and experience the feeling of flight by "flying" close to the ground, under footpaths, and narrowly past trees and rocks.
Flights at Narita airport were unaffected, but Haneda airport, which handles mostly domestic flights, closed its three runways for checks.
