Aircraft
De Bernardi MDB 02 Aeroscooter
Having developed the all-metal single-seat Partenavia P.53 Aeroscooter earlier, Mario de Bernardi sought to improve the design as the two-seat de Bernardi M.d.B. 02 Aeroscooter. The aircraft was to be built by CAP in Bergamo, Italy.
The Aeroscooter is a low-wing, two-seat monoplane. The partial welded steel tube fuselage uses aluminum skins. The wing uses a wood spar. The tricycle landing gear uses trailing link suspension. The single-piece plexiglas canopy slides forward to open. All fuel is housed in the 20 l (5.28 US gal; 4.40 imp gal) header tank and 50 l (13.21 US gal; 11.00 imp gal) main tank behind the passenger’s seat.
The prototype was built by De Bernardi with the assistance of two mechanics. In April 1959, De Bernardi died of a heart attack after flying a demonstration of the prototype at Rome Urbe Airport.
An example is on display at Museo Aeronautico Caproni di Taledo, Milano.
The daughter of De Bernardi was offering plans for a modernized version of the Aeroscooter using a Rotax 912UL engine to be flown under Italian microlight category.

de Bacqueville Artificial Wings
Around 1742 the Marquis de Bacqueville is reported to have thrown himself from the roof of his house and managed to fly “with artificial wings” across the Seine, at which point he fell heavily into a boat and broke his thigh. He was more than 60 years old, “slightly crazy but with a lot of spirit.” There seems no record of how the wings worked.
