The 1910 "Semaine d'Aviation de Touraine"

Postby Anders » Sun Aug 31, 2014 6:47 am

This meeting was held in Tours, France, in April-May 1910. Although sanctioned by the Aéro-Club de France it was a minor meeting with less than ten active pilots. Rain and winds affected much of the meeting, but Captain Bertram Dickson and Jorge (Géo) Chávez made some good flights.

Tours meeting pages updated!

The French National Library keeps digitizing more and more old newspapers and magazines, and as a result I've been able to update the Tours pages. Both the "Events" page and the "results" page is now much more detailed, the former with around fifty percent more text.

You will find the pages here!

It doesn't happen that often, but once in a while a couple of new photos turn up. You will find two images that I believe haven't been published before on the "Planes" page, and one more on the "Events" page. The pages are here.
