but may not knock you off your feet... This is for the Vinyl guys. I have an extra copy of Styx Cornerstone that I got as part of a bunch of LP's. it is in nice overall shape and plays well with minimal popping. On a scale of one to ten this one scores a 7 for condition of the lp and about a six on the jacket. this one is free including shipping and will be given out to the first that can correctly name the first aviator to cross the English Channel by air... Enjoy!;)

    that would have been my first choice as well, but it was done by others before him. He was just the first to do so in an airplane.

    Blanchard date 1785
    HOWEVER...
    An aviator is a person who flies aircraft for pleasure or as a profession. The first recorded use of the term was in 1887 as a variation of the French 'aviation', from the latin 'avis', coined 1863 by G. de la Landelle in "Aviation ou Navigation A

    while you are correct in dating the term, the use of balloons have been an accepted part of aviation since the beginings of powered flight and the term has been retroactively applied to ballooning pioneers as well, as anyone who leaves the bonds of earth is in fact flying...
