The Langley Aerodrome A looked just like an airplane out of some Jules Verne-based futuristic movie. It was actually built, and they attempted to fly it - twice, before giving up. The last time it was attempted was just days before the Wright Bro's historic flight.
My 'panorama' shot, below, does not do this bird justice. It WAS a cool looking aircraft, with two sets of wings, fabric covered, and fabric covered propellers.
