Ooops! Sorry for the slight error! I really meant Santos Dumont.
The other names mentioned?
William Cody, Louis Bleriot, Glenn Curtiss, Henry Farman
and others like Mr. Voisson [correct spelling?];
all were stirred and inspired to either enter
aviation development or redouble their efforts
once they read about or saw the Wright Brother's exploits
in 1904-1908.
