    The failure of the aeroplane to get off the ground may also be down to the moisture saturated air, and lack of good lift- a decent breath of wind would have gone a long way towards recreating the first flight.

    Anyway, here's to the centenary of a great American and human achievement.
    Vive la liberte. Noor Inayat Khan, Dachau.

    ...patriotism is not enough. I must have no hatred or bitterness towards anyone. Edith Cavell, 1915

      Anyway, today is supposed to be the centennial, but there is some debate as to whether the Wrights were first to accomplish powered controlled flight.

      Thoughts?
      Stewardesses are overrated unless you really go for unattached anal sex, or want to marry a woman who is desperately using religion to cover up for her recent life of unattached serial anal sex relationships. I passed up on the opportunity my self.
