Good on him. Partially successful seems a reasonable description for your first flight, albeit with a crunch at the end.

Didn't those two brothers in the Us have a bit of a technical issue - after Wilburs first flight the Flyer was wrecked?

At 150 feet above ground and 2 minutes it wasn't bad. Probably should have read more about the brothers and how they taught theemselves...

The world would be a sadder place without this sort of thing!
