' .... we have a lift off.... '

• 

Maybe this centennial flying day has had enough coverage already. Maybe the issue is only vaguely related to cars (after all it was made by bicycle makers...). Maybe there is nothing new to say about the subject. Nothing new to be discovered. Still the fact is there that nothing is the same since that first motorised flight. Not even for Car itself. Was the automobile until that day the Emperor of High-Tech. It lost that position for ever when the first "aero-bike" took off. The fact that the brothers Wright decided that there was no engine on the market that met their demands, was only the beginning. It took them two months only to develop the engine they needed. That machine was strong enough and light as well. The best site on the subject that we discovered is the one displaying the collection of Collection Highlights from the Library of Congres.
