They have a Clément Ader aircraft in original state except for wings fabric.
And they have many engines of old times for those interested in mechanics. |
Greetings,
Shadoko thank you for this information and link. Maybe, I will go for a visit in summer of the collection (unknown for me).
For "Le Bourget" museum, I search the movie's title (WWI Aviation documentary) on the big screen or some screens in the museum. I had most the time (December 2009) for look the collections than wait the movie's end for write it (title)  .
Do you know the title? I want to buy this movie.
I have some sequences, if they help you for an identification.
Thanks.
Regards.
