To Fly Like a Bird
For years, pioneer flyer
Gunter Roshelt has striven to crack the secret of a bird's flight. He's tried everything, from solar energy to his own son's muscle power.
But it was not until he flew across the Danube using a craft designed 170 years ago, that he got his latest inspiration. If birds fold their wings, then so should he. But would they work?

Gary Mason and Mark Kaylor are the other big names on this Barrett/Duff promotion, which also features the British Light Middleweight Championship fight, over 12 rounds, between
Gary Cooper and Michael Harris. Commentator
