Description
English: Aviation in Britain Before the First World War- the work of Samuel Franklin Cody in Airship, Kite and Aircraft Aeronautics 1903 - 1913
Demonstration of passenger carrying kites designed by S F Cody, with a woman (probably Mrs Lela Cody) suspended from a harness. The kites were designed to be used by the Balloon Section of the Royal Engineers when the strength of the wind (anything above around twenty miles an hour) prevented the use of observation balloons. S F Cody later made the first sustained powered flight in Britain, while his wife Lela became the first woman to fly.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
