Who would have thought?

Bits of metal, doped up fabric, an engine which you had to start by
HAND, a rickety seat, a stick, basic instruments, if any, and off you

Thank you for those shots, sir. They are very impressive as well as
those very early aircrafts.


A lot of these things are flown by airline pilots, which makes
sense, given that they want to FLY and their jobs now revolve
around instrument and computer monitoring.............
