[00:05.400] | --- Listen to the tape then answer the question below. |
[00:11.080] | --- What was the name of the first plane to fly across the English Channel? |
[00:17.840] | In 1908 Lord Northcliffe offered a prize of $1,000 to the first man who would fly across the English Channel.^1908 |
[00:27.800] | Over a year passed before the first attempt was made. |
[00:32.080] | On July 19th, 1909, in the early morning, Hubert Latham took off from the French coast in his plane the 'Antoinette IV'.^1909 |
[00:43.160] | He had travelled only seven miles across the Channel when his engine failed and he was forced to land on the sea. |
[00:50.480] | The 'Antoinette' floated on the water until Latham was picked up by a ship.^“ |
[00:56.200] | Two days later, Louis Bleriot arrived near Calais with a plane called 'No. XI'. |
[01:03.320] | Bleriot had been making planes since 1905 and this was his latest model. |
[01:10.200] | A week before, he had completed a successful overland flight during which he covered twenty-six miles. |
[01:17.840] | Latham, however, did not give up easily. |
[01:21.120] | He, too, arrived near Calais on the same day with a new 'Antoinette'. |
[01:26.800] | It looked as if there would be an exciting race across the Channel. |
[01:31.320] | Both planes were going to take off on July 25th, |
[01:35.240] | but Latham failed to get up early enough, |
[01:38.760] | After making a short test flight at 4:15 a.m., Bleriot set off half an hour later. |
[01:46.000] | His great flight lasted thirty-seven minutes. |
[01:49.960] | When he landed near Dover, the first person to greet him was a local policeman. |
[01:55.600] | Latham made another attempt a week later and got within half a mile of Dover, but he was unlucky again. |
[02:03.400] | His engine failed and he landed on the sea for the second time. |
