Picture album of the Blériot flying school at Pau in 1909
On Flickr here is a complete album of 36 pictures of machines and scenes of the Blériot flying school at Pau in 1909.

Quote:
All images scanned in high resolution and restored by Simon Eccles from a photo album made by Arthur Fleetwood Wilson and now in the possession of his son Anthony.
Especially noteworthy are the detail pictures of the Blériot Type XII engine, which is gleaming like a work of art. Amazing pictures.

Cheers
