But photos and confirmation further?
1863 I have a page on Shaw with a motorised balloon...but was it ever constructed and made it ever a flight? Probably steam or compressed air or such powered?
There were several man powered engines as well and the one I thought at in first instance was the pedal bicycle driven on propellered airship from Ritchell (1878) It's proven he made flights with! But by windstill time than!
