| Nowadays, museums all over the
world, document the history of aircraft which started with Otto Lilienthal. In the town
of Anklam, a special museum was set up. The Otto-Lilienthal-Museum tells an old dream of
mankind, the dream to
fly. It tells the history from the legend of Icarus to the aircraft. In the museum, the visitor encounters a great variety of aircraft constructions developed by Lilienthal. It is here that his experiments are documented. In Anklam, some experimental models may be tested, and one may enter the "cockpit" of the first aircraft in world. After that, one can better understand, why flying by plane was so difficult to invent. |
