Seconded. If you have been onboard old wooden yachts the deckhead is low, usually with big beams projecting below. Full disclosure, ex owner of a 1939 wooden double ender.

Great documentary ! Really well done.

... but wasn't it Clément Ader who made the first motorized flight ? 13 years before the Wright brothers, who took off with a catapult.

:p:p:p

Technically, the Wrights Bros. were the first to achieve manned, powered, and controllable flight. All three elements. The documentary only mentions two aspects.
