Paris to Madrid air race and Pyrenees eagle drama

A vivid portrait of early long distance flights over Europe recounts aviators crossing the Pyrenees in a Paris to Madrid race. Tales of peril from mountain cliffs and circling eagles accompany notes on Vedrine and Gibert, delays, crashes, and the 721 mile Paris Madrid leg amid royal enthusiasm and multi club coordination.

Wonderful Aviators Sweep Europe In Grand Air Tour

The piece surveys European aviation feats with pilots like Garros and Morin, noting Rome welcomes the flyers after a 909 mile flight, Galileo’s telescope history, and dramatic stunts such as Tadeo’s two somersaults at 2000 feet near Geneva. It contrasts celebratory public reaction with perilous air exploits and pondered fates of aviators.
