EDITORS COMMENTS
This stereo pair photograph dates back to 1923 and showcases the Poncelet Castar O-BAFG (meeting no. 7) glider, ready for a bungee launch at the Congrès expérimental de vol sans moteur de Vauville. In this image, the glider, with its engine removed, is meticulously prepared for an experimental flight. The Poncelet Castar O-BAFG was a significant aircraft in the realm of early aviation, showcasing innovative design and engineering. The glider, a forerunner to modern aircraft, is seen in its raw, unadorned state, with the engine conspicuously absent. Instead, the focus is on the intricate details of the wings and the robust structure of the fuselage. The pilots, likely wearing protective gear, are seen in the foreground, readying the bungee cord for launch. The tension in their expressions and the determined look in their eyes convey the excitement and anticipation of the impending flight. The Congrès expérimental de vol sans moteur de Vauville, or the Experimental Glider Congress of Vauville, was a groundbreaking event in the history of aviation. It brought together pioneers in the field to test and experiment with new glider designs, pushing the boundaries of what was possible in flight. This photograph is a testament to the spirit of innovation and the relentless pursuit of progress that characterized the early days of aviation. The Poncelet Castar O-BAFG glider, with its sleek design and innovative engineering, is a fascinating glimpse into the past. This image, captured in 1923, offers a unique perspective on the evolution of flight and the courageous individuals who dared to dream and innovate.
