Leonardo da Vinci, born on 15 April 1452 in Italy, possessed a genius that went far beyond simply being a remarkable artist. He was, perhaps, the first European interested in finding a practical solution to flight. Working towards this purpose, he studied the flight of birds as well as their structure. Da Vinci designed numerous mechanical devices, including parachutes. Around 1485, he drew detailed plans for a human-powered ornithopter' which was a wing-flapping machine humans could use to fly. In his notes, he suggested bats, kites and birds as models to imitate. He referred to his flying machine as the Great Bird'. For safety reasons, he also suggested that the machine should be tested over a lake. There is no proof that he actually built this machine. However, a legend exists that one of his students actually flew a model of the 'Great Bird', crashed and broke his leg! The most fascinating of all his flying machines is his last one. It is the only one of his designs that was a true glider and showed the beginnings of controlled flight. Over the next four centuries, scientists and engineers continued to work on the idea of a flight machine. But it was only in 1783 that the first hot-air balloon was successfully launched in France. Almost eighty-five years later, a powered monoplane model flew a few dozen feet at an exhibition at the Crystal Palace in London.
