Thanks for the post! I thought I was fairly "up on" the history of flight -- but, I was unaware of Eilmer of Malmesbury.

BTW, did Dr. Hallion also cover Rev. Burrell Cannon, of Pittsburg, Texas?

I've lectured on historic archaeology at last three times to audiences seated beneath the replica

of Cannon's "Ezekiel Airship", which supposedly flew in 1903.

Personally, I doubt that "flight": that thing is quite heavily constructed...

Great tagline!

Dunno, I’d never heard of any of them (yours, and the topic guy, and the guy who wrote about him) until today. :’)
