AeroModeller Annual 1968-69 (RCL#1626)

"Some years ago I became involved with Aeromodeller's tame cartoonist, Ernie Sherry, in a project straight out of Jules Verne - or was it Walt Disney? A huge pair of wings was made to strap on our backs - a sort of latter day Lilienthal*. I hasten to say that all this was Ernie's idea - I just went along for the laughs!"

*According to wikipedia "Otto Lilienthal (1848-1896) was a German pioneer of aviation who became known as the Glider King. He was the first person to make well-documented, repeated, successful gliding flights. Newspapers and magazines published photographs of Lilienthal gliding, favorably influencing public and scientific opinion about the possibility of flying machines becoming practical. On August 9 1896, his glider stalled and he was unable to regain control. Falling from about 15 m (50 ft), he broke his neck and died the next day, 10 August 1896."
