Rezumat
Aurel Vlaicu And The Astra Celebrations From Blaj (1911)
Aurel Vlaicu managed to fly an airplane for the first time in Transilvania during the Astra celebrations which took place in 1911. All this happened when the cultural association had its general conference at Blaj. The engineer Vlaicu was a inventor, constructor and pilot. The plane he flew during this meeting was his own creation. All this historic event brought huge joy to the Romanians from Transilvania and to the others from beyond the Carpathians.
