Hi,

Does anyone have a spare or unwanted copy of the English translation of Henri Mignet's book 'The Flying Flea - How to Build and Fly It' that I could buy please.

Some years ago I built the replica now on display at the North East Aircraft museum, plus a couple of fuselages and wings for other builders, but let my copy go to a friend which was dumb. I have to do some work on one shortly hence my interest again in getting a copy of the book.

Thanks

Ken

Still looking for this Flea book if anyone has one spare,

The translation is on the web but with parts missing for some reason in relation to the engine. I have all the build sections downloaded but the book would be great.

Arthur Ord-Hume's lastest book ' The first home built aeroplanes' has got how to build a Flying Flea and Luton Minor taken from Newnes Practical Mechanics.
