Bangor, fall 1909:

Took off during an air fair, and before I realized it, this fog bank rolled in:

Now I'm skimming the trees looking for an open place to set down and praying there are no telegraph lines in my path.

Actually it's a Levauseur Antionete, like the one in "Those Magnificent Men in their Flying Machines." With those warping wings it's most definetly not a tight turner, and it wants to keep flying even with the power chopped.
I've been a nut for early air age planes since I first saw the above movie as a kid. I also have a Bleoit and three curtis pushers in my "hanger" and am constantly looking for other pioneering aircraft to fly in the sim.
