1898 Control bar and hung swing seat for hang glider: two kingposts, two queenposts (downtubes) for cable staying the lifting wings. Ten years later, see the Breslau hang glider with triangle control frame as we know it today on so many hang gliders with pilot hung from short kite line to effect a framed paraglider hang glider in 1908. Have fun adding to our spectacular history!
