LOST Vulture One PARIS spaceplane FOUND!!!
The Register's epic Paper Aircraft Released Into Space (PARIS) project ended in glorious triumph this afternoon as our Spanish ground pursuit team finally discovered the landing site of Vulture One, the cutting edge stationery spacecraft piloted by our intrepid playmonaut.

It's nice of Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall to help you,

Come on, Reg, you can fool some of us into buying you free beer but we weren't all born yesterday.
Can I make a suggestion?
Get one of those cheap'n'cheerful fixed-focus digital cameras that does MJPEG at 640x480 (or maybe 320x240 if it's a slow image processor?). Pop in an SD card.

Just prior to release, switch the thing on and into video mode (can somebody pop a hand out and prod the buttons? is this possible?).
Then let the good times roll!
