(Original Caption) 3/24/1932-Berlin, Germany-Max Wiedenhoft, well-known German airplane designer, poises on the roof of one of the Tempelhof Aerodrome buildings, about to start a test of his newly-designed rocket-bicycle. By pedalling the bike for his start, and by use of the rockets mounted on the rear wheel, Wiedenhoft's Flying rocket-bicycle attained a momentum of 108 miles per hour. It is expected that the new machine may take the place of the small airplane. BPA2 #370.
