The aviation one, 'Time of Flight', is still being written!<br /><br />Loved your grandmother's anecdote, Elizabeth. And I think your great-great-grandfather had a point - how do aeroplanes stay in the air? I've never really understood...Christina Koninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10275312730534980490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5502671101756463249.post-40581712491092838952015-03-19T16:37:28.012+00:002015-03-19T16:37:28.012+00:00Oh, NM.

Wow! <br /><br />What book/series is this for? I searched Goodreads but didn't see a mystery series by you.

It reminds me of my grandmother (born 1899) telling me that as a little girl she remembers her grandfather watching the first experiments in flight and saying that they'd never get the vehicles properly into the air!
