Actually, it looks like this posting got a pretty fair response, and there is quite a bit of interest in it.

I can add that the Besler plane flew only a few miles from where I grew up, and only a decade or so earlier, so I do feel a historical connection.

I'd also point out that there is another thread currently extant that references steam powered flight as well, in connection with Anton Bohaboy and his model engineering wizardry, so while obviously not everybody is always interested in all the same things, this particular topic has sparked a significant amount of interest within this rather limited population community.

 ....  or so it seems to me!
