(1)The airship lifted up from the ground. Men raised their hats and cheered.
“Good luck!” the crowd shouted. Alberto Santos Dumont leaned over the side of the basket. He smiled and waved at the thousands of people in the park below.
(2)Like a cloud of silk, the giant ballon moved up over the crowd. Under the balloon, the engine roared at full speed.
Standing in the basket, Alberto could feel the wind against his back. (3) It was a strong wind—as strong as the wind had been on his first try several months before. That day his balloon had crashed into a large tree.
But that crash had not been the worst. A month later, near the Eiffel Tower, the balloon had crashed into a hotel building and explod-ed.
However, on this day, his third try, he would not fail. He would win the prize.
(4)To win the prize, he had to fly the 7-mile trip around the Eiffel Tower in 30 minutes. But the prize itself—20,000 dollars—was not important to him. Alberto was a rich man. What was important to him was the flying.
In 1898 he had been the first man to fly a motor-driven airship. (5) On this day, October 19,1901, he would prove man could pick on a course and fly it.
