I am easily overwhelmed. Every morning I wake up in the same bed, in the midst of the same surroundings to which I know so well. The pale white walls ornamented with art, the burgundy linen curtains that I move aside to embrace the morning sky. I see the patches of clouds, the dim morning sun yet to reach its brilliance and the airplane passing by casting fleeting shadows on the ground below. These things never become old to me. It's as if my eyes have retained the virgin blue of an infant who is seeing the world for the first time.
Recently I came across a wonderful site dedicated to the history of
Flying machines. Complete with library, images, patents, inventors, merchandise, models, simulator, flight tales, and links to other sites concerning flying machines. I'm so excited to have found this and I hope you all will enjoy it as much as I.

Thanks for the link! I'm actually rather fascinated with biplanes and early flight!

ReplyDeleteThey are fascinating!
Every time I see pictures of early flying
machines I want to go out in my garage
and build stuff!
Traian Vuia's aircraft gives me chills every time!
