One entry had me chuckling, “The ornithopter flew sucessfully until it’s progress was arrested by a tree”

by the by, i remember a salvage squad episode, where they rebuilt an old puss moth (or something very similar) with the last entry in the loogbook being

“pranged kite into hill”

they had a wonderful way of wording things back then 😀

glad someones flying one, SHAR looks nicer than the GR9 imho

small brake fire 😀

first fully controlled flight with a woman passenger, Camp d’Auvours near le mans?

the only aviation related thing i could find was the first powered aircraft related fatality, which was Lieutenant Thomas Selfridge when a wright brothers aircraft crashed after one of the props cracked… though this was at fort meyer in virginia, picture doesnt look much like virginia :/

more clues please 😀

thats a hell of a picture! i hope it is real, do you have any dates as to when it was taken?

i think there is considerable difference between modern aircraft and a 270 year old ship,

Victory, was designed for, built and indeed spent many years, afloat on the sea. so her being outside next to the sea, wouldnt cause the same damage in 4 months that would be caused by leaving an aircraft, like a vulcan, outside. (wales air musem at cardiff i think is a good example) yes it costs masses to maintain, etc

what i like about how she’s displayed, is it almost looks like she’s afloat, as you approach her, just looks like she’s tied up at a dock!

that B&W, is just stunning. truly a beautiful aircraft

looks like waddo?

im afraid its not my one 🙁 i always wanted to build it but never really had the funds, nor any support from the LMA (which you need really) they thought it was too ambitious for a beginniner (i thought if it was my money, why couldnt i build it?)

they do fly of water though, and with an 80cc inline twin, fairly fast too 🙂

ill get round to building her one day
