[b] Was Moisant any relation to the very fetching Matilde Moisant?
Fetching ?... now you're getting into Harriet Quimby territory !

Yes, John Moisant was the older brother of Matilde Moisant. Brother to Alfred Moisant. Collectively known as the Magnificent Moisants.

Actually Jempie sent it to me. ...Leaving the grueling task of translating the accompanying French text up to moi !
