Interesting positive glass
view in a 10x8cm format.
Found this weekend in
Cestas. For sure this plane, the Bleriot XI was one of the most famous in 1909.
It was the first plane
to cross the English Chanel (La Manche)
in 25th July of 1909. His pilot, engineer and constructer became one of the most famous personalities
at those times. He won a 1000£ prize offered by the Daily mail newspaper.
I like to imagine that
in this photo, Blériot was piloting the
famous Bleriot XI.
Lately, the name “Blériot””
and his company “Recherches Aeronautiques Louis Blériot “ became a reference in
the aeronautics
The design of Bleriot XI
Once worked in Photoshop
