Légende

'Imaginary Flight of Henson's "Ariel"', 1843, (1944). William Henson and John Stringfellow's 1843 design for steam-powered flying machine. The 'Ariel', patented in 1842, was incapable of flight since it had insufficient power from its heavy steam engine to get airborne. From "Britain In The Air", by Nigel Tangye. [Collins, London, 1944]
