1906 SANTOS DUMONT'S MONOPLANE
1905 Santos-Dumont had become convinced that flying airships could be compared to pushing a candle
through a brick wall. Inspired by stories of what the Wright brothers had accomplished in the United States,
Santos-Dumont designed and flew a series of heavier-than-air flying machines. His major accomplishments
include making the first public flight in Europe with a powered, winged aircraft on Sept. 13, 1906; winning the
Archdeacon Cup on October 23 for a flight of 60 metres (about 200 feet); and winning an Aero Club of
France Prize of 1,500 francs for the first flight of 100 metres (about 330 feet) on November 12.
