Early and historic flight: Attempts to fly ornithopters, including Gustav Lilienthal's large ornithopter.

Scenes of vintage, historic, early aviation flight attempts: Men at controls of several unsuccessful ornithopter aircraft, intended to fly by flapping wings. One man rides a bicycle equipped with wings that he flaps using sticks by his handle bars. Another sits in a tub-like machine with tricycle wheels, as it "flaps" its wings. In a third scene, men assist as operator moves very large wings on a machine. Although the wings move, the machine doesn't. This large machine might be Gustav Lilienthal's ornithopter. It had a 3 horse-power motor. Location might be Berlin's Tempelhof Airport, around 1927
