EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "The Santos-Dumont Demoiselle Replica 9: A Flight into the Past 2. Subtitle: A Glimpse into the Making of the Iconic 1965 Film 'Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines' 3.. The Santos-Dumont Demoiselle Replica 9 is a captivating piece of aviation history, meticulously built by Personal Plane Services Ltd at Booker for the production of the 1965 film 'Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines.' This flyable replica, showcased in the photograph taken at Wainfleet in September 1964, was an essential element in the filming of this classic comedy about aeronautical competition in the early 20th century. In the background of the image, a glider takes a winch launch, adding to the bustling atmosphere of the aerial event. The Santos-Dumont Demoiselle Replica 9, with its vintage charm and intricate design, stands out as a testament to the passion and dedication of the filmmakers and builders who brought this iconic aircraft to life. The Santos-Dumont Demoiselle, originally designed and flown by the Brazilian pioneer Alberto Santos-Dumont in 1901, was the first successful powered airship to take off, land, and be piloted by a single person. This replica, built for the film, allowed modern audiences to experience the thrill and innovation of early aviation. The photograph, taken during the filming of 'Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines,' offers a unique glimpse into the past, merging the worlds of film and aviation history. The image is a reminder of the enduring allure of flight and the ingenuity of those who dare to dream and create.
