The impact that early flying had on the public was immense,the Daily Mail gave large sums of money for aerial meetings like this,flying was here to stay and young boys who would look in wonder as people like Claude Graham White toured the country landing on local commons,in America Samual Cody was also on tour with his wood & fabric biplane,likewise in France there was much development,people wanted to make models of these machines and gradually clubs were formed under organisations such as the Royal Aero club who promoted the sport.The hobby of building scale model aeroplanes worked alongside that of the progress of aviation itself and has refined itself into what we accept today.
