    Nice Find doing a cleanout

    Today I took what I thought to be an antique glider to an expert and I hit the lotto lol it is an Eastlake made in the 1870-80's all original says it could be worth 1200 bucks , so I took it to get a facelift re-glued and upholstered . I should of took pics but I was excited lol

    At first I thought you ment a airplane.
    But we all know that the airplane was invented by a Kiwi and first flown on 31 March 1903...
