To Lasso the Clouds

Dan A. Aldridge

4.9/5 (25473 ratings)

Description:The story of the first airplane flight in Georgia has not been told correctly in more than one hundred years. The year given for this flight, 1907, is not correct, the plane identified as the first to fly never got off the ground, and Ben T. Epps, Sr. is incorrectly credited, solely, with achieving this feat. Aldridge brings to light the complete, incredible story of the two young men from Athens, Georgia who achieved their dream of flight. Epps and Zumpt A. Huff were described by one newspaper after that first flight as a second pair of Wright brothers. On their journey to build a machine capable of sustained, controlled flight, this unlikely pair crossed paths with some of the worlds greatest icons including: Henry Ford; Glenn Curtis, father of Naval Aviation and founder of the American Aircraft Industry; Alessandro Anzani, world-famous for designing and building motorcycle and airplane engines; and Louis Blriot, the first person in the world to fly a monoplane.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
