MAN WITH ARTIFICIAL WINGS POISED FOR FLIGHT
demonstrates a blinding faith
in personal aerodynamics-
flow charts studied, wind
currents-Archimedes dis-
placement of weights considered
as an imbalance of correctable
faults-one of many he could
overcome through judicious
planning, exertions of physical
strengths aided by man's devicing-
avian properties studied and
reproduced, a gliding motion
sought through handmade pro-
pellants, the great notion of soaring-
ideal elevation attainments-the core
dreamt element; glancing up once
to further consider the heights,
he adjusts shoulder strappings,
flexes artifical wings, jumps.
