George Pocock

George Pocock is an inventor, he exploited the wind for being dragged by a kite  tied to a chair reaching 32km/h.
Pocock wrote traveling from Bristol to Marlborough stating that:
"This way of traveling is of all others the most pleasant: privileged exploiting the winds invincible, our tandem transpierces playfully heavenly clouds, and our car in motion mystic slips quickly along the surface of the earth had just returned, and spectators, snatching a glance at the quick shipment, but without noise, are led to regard the novel scene rather as a vision a reality. "
Pocock has written a book with the handy little title 'The Art Aeropleustic or navigation in the air with the use of kites, or floating Sails' which was published in 1827.
A further advantage is that the machine has escaped all road tolls.He said that:
"There is a strange satisfaction in not being detained toll-bar. The aches and pains that they arrest us ordinary travelers, never catch this crew heavenly. The Char-volant, therefore, has the prerogative to confer such privilege illustrious real and those who travel on the road kite the Kings. "

Aereostatic as a sport

the aereostatic development has been remarkable in the last decade. The aereostatic is used in the Sport.
See this video that makes us see the world airship champions.

In hot-air air ballon vertical movements are obtained with the control of the heat from propane burners attached to the cockpit of a propulsion motor which also is equipped guaranteeing the forward movement.Rudders mounted on the back of the airballon allow precise control.
The pilot coordinates all movements to reach navigation,speed and precision flight activities.
