Talk:Bennie Railplane

This is a well-written artticle, but I suggest it should be rewritten slightly too decrease the resemblance to the page at http://gillonj.tripod.com/bennierailplane/ which was presumably the source of most of it. Flapdragon 14:26, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

Henri Coanda's cable guided vehicle with propeller (1920 patent)
A strikingly similar vehicle to the one build by Bennie was patented before by Romanian engineer Henri Coanda (Patent number: 1344677, Filing date: Apr 1, 1920, Issue date: Jun 29, 1920, Title: Aerial Transporter)

I would be interested to know if there are other inventors who had similar ideas (cable, rail guided vehicles with plane propellers) before 1920. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.80.2.75 (talk) 15:51, 31 July 2013 (UTC)
