| Luigi Prina's fabulous Flying machines |
Have you seen the Studio Ghibli film, Laputa: Castles in the Sky? If so then you can probably relate to my love for Luigi Prina and his beautiful Flying Model Ships.
Luigi has been making aircrafts since he was a boy and won a national competition at just 16 years old. In his 60's, and working as a successful architect, Luigi was bet by a boat builder/friend that he couldn't make a flying ship. It wasn't long before Luigi had a built a little flying boat that wirrled around in his small studio. 20 years later Luigi has dedicated his life to making flying boats, bicycles and other unusual aircraft.
I personally think they are fantastic....
