Yeah Tom, I caught it while I was over there on holiday - all good stuff. Alberto, like a lot of the early pioneers, deserves more recognition for his efforts, hope this program helps. What other people are being featured in the series? (we probably won't get the show in UK for a couple of years, from past experience, sigh).

Nova is an eclectic program, not mainly about flight though there have been a few flight related episodes over the years. You can find out more here: www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/ |

Thanks Tom, thought it was all about flight from the title 'Wings of Madness' but I see what you mean from the web site - thanks for the HU.
