Default Junkyard Wars/Wright Flyer

Tonight was the first time in years that I have watched TV for more than
1 hour straight.
Junkyard Wars - with 3 aircraft build and flown - you have to admit -
that French Team had style,
Followed by the Wright Flyer - what a great documentary.
You guys that get Wings Channel are spoilt - we just get a couple of
hours of decent flyiing programming a year - and tonight was it!

Oh, and you forgot to mention the vastly superior British winning
entry.
