GREAT KITE
Codex on Flight
Da Vinci was a prolific inventor; he designed hundreds of war machines for work but
also for the theatre and world of music. Of all the machines he invented, the flying
machines are the most incredible, and not a single book in the world on the history of
aviation fails to recognise Leonardo Da Vinci as the forerunner in studies of human
flight.
The Codex on Flight, preserved in the Royal Library of Turin represents the most
advanced and organic state of Da Vinci’s studies on flight. The genius Da Vinci drew
inspiration for his work from his direct observation of the flight of a bird; the kite. By
analysing the Turin notebook carefully, the Leonardo3 research centre discovered that
the design for the “Codex on Flight flying machine” is described with extreme
precision.
