Wilbur made his first flight in Europe on August 8, at Hunaudières racecourse at Le Mans. He wrote to his brother the following day, "I finished the machine yesterday far enough to enable me to make a little flight ... A number of people had come down from Paris, including two Russian officers who have been waiting there for several weeks by instruction of their government ... I made two rounds of the field in a little less than two minutes and landed in front of the grand stand."
