## About This Content
Relive the golden age of aviation when a hardy band of adventurers first took
to the air in direct defiance of gravity. This compelling collection of early
aircraft features 5 machines that smashed records and finally allowed mankind
to break the bonds holding us to terra firma.

Join with the Wright Brothers and take to the air for a tour of Ohio in the
iconic Model B aircraft or recreate the achievement of Louis Bleriot in a
death defying crossing of the English Channel in the Bleriot XI monoplane.
Strap yourself into the Santos-Dumont 14-bis and share the elation of
performing the first unaided take-off of a heavier than air aircraft. The
Goliescu Avioplan with its idiosyncratic design and equally unpredictable
performance may be a challenge to fly but was the first aircraft to utilise a
tubular design that paved the way for aircraft of today. The Handley Page E is
widely acclaimed as the first passenger aircraft, although comfort was not an
option with the passenger seated precariously behind the pilot in a small
bucket seat open to the outside air!

Each has been lovingly crafted, resulting in stunning recreations of these
historic aircraft complete with authentic flight characteristics that capture
the spirit and adventure of a bygone era. Also included are missions for
Microsoft Flight Simulator X that will push your flying skills to the limit
with an opportunity to experience the finest hour of these pioneering
aircraft, putting you in the pilot’s seat to attempt the record breaking
challenges that flew these daring aviators into the history books.
