Weedhopper Photo (Jon Steiger's) |
| A 1909 airplane that looks very much like the Weedhopper | Take a look at aircraft no. 19, initially called Libellule ,initially called "Libellule" (later changed to "Demoiselle"). It was a small monoplane high wing, with only 5.10 metres wingspan, 8 metres long and weighing little more than 110 Kg with Santos-Dumont at the controls. With optimum performance, easily covering 200 metres of ground during the initial flights and flying at speeds of more than 100 Km/h, the "Demoiselle" was the last aircraft built by Santos-Dumont; he retired from his aeronautical activities in 1910. |
