On September 6, the outrageous human-powered flying competition known as Red Bull Flugtag will once again soar over the Windy City. This time, however, it’s headed to the salty waters of North Avenue Beach where nearly 40 teams of fearless fliers will take to the skies. This year’s Red Bull Flugtag Chicago competitors have a lot to live up to – and we do mean up. Flip the clock back five years and you may remember King Kong, Snoopy the Red Baron and Larry the Flying Lobster hitting the Chicago skies in front of over 70,000 revelers.
