"This film ist the story of Octave Chanutes glider flying trials in the Indiana Dunes in 1896 and 1897. The eminent civil engineer, Octave Chanute, and his team came to the southern shore of Lake Michigan in 1896 to experiment with flying machines. In true engineering fashion he developed the biplane glider, which became the basis of all modern aviation. The sites where the experiments took place are now part of the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore."
