Franz Reichelt - What Goes Up….
Description
Today’s tale is set on a freezing cold morning, 57 metres above the ground, in Paris, France. The date February 4th 1912. Our subject, one unfortunate soul we’ll come to in a few minutes. Before I even begin this tale, I needs must take you all on a flight of fancy.
This week we discuss Franz Reichelt, the flying tailor - and the early days of powered flight.
