OBS

On a cold February morning in 1909, citizens of Baddeck, Nova Scotia gathered to watch a young Canadian named Douglas McCurdy climb into an airplane. As the tiny Silver Dart soared into the sky, they were lucky enough to see the first airplane flight in Canadian history. McCurdy's flight was a great success for the six-member Aerial Experiment Association (AEA). The idea and the money for the AEA came from Mabel Bell. She and her husband, Alexander Graham Bell (the guy who invented the telephone) often spent their summer's in Baddeck. Before building the Silver Dart, the AEA experimented with other flying machines. First they built kites. Not your average fly-at-the-park kites, but huge devices for lifting people off the ground. Next they worked on a bi-plane type glider.
