The Wright Brothers Memorial Tower, Kill Devil Hill, Kittyhawk, North Carolina





 

































Certainly not a technically brilliant (or even good) photo, it does however represent where I was 11 years ago today, attending the First Flight Centenary celebrations of the Wright Brothers historic flight. It was actually taken on the preceding day, the actual anniversary was dull, overcast and wet - just like you would have expected had it have been back home in England. The event itself was hosted by John Travolta and guests included Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Chuck Yeager, oh, and a chap called G W Bush dropped in by helicopter.
