Another very informative book was "CONTACT! The Story of the Early Birds", by Henry Serrano Villard, published by
Bonanza Books, New York. Unfortunately, this book is no longer in print. We found our copy for sale on an internet used
book search. If you love early aviation and want a good "read", complete with some great photographs, try to find a copy of
your own! Last but not least, try to find a video copy of that great old movie "Those Magnificent Men And Their Flying
Machines". It’s a comic, yet historically well based, look at the great international air meets that started in 1909. It will show
you what the Antoinette and many other early pioneer aeroplanes actually looked like in flight. It’s fun to watch while you’re
building your own Antoinette.

Good luck and safe flying!

Hubert Latham and his record setting Antoinettes.

1909 - 1910

Antoinette replica built for the movie “Those Magnificent Man and Their Flying Machines”.
