Sport Ballooning Information From Around The World The First Balloon Ascent in England From The Dominion of the Air by Rev. John Mackenzie Bacon (1846-1904) The following account of aviation history has been edited and adapted for Web viewing by Barb Tomlin. Itappears as Chapter 3 in the book written by Bacon, published in 1870. We were surprised to find in our reading of this chapter that there may have been a prior ascension by an Englishman but because it could not be verified to the satisfaction of theking, history remains unchanged. If you should wish to link directly to this page, please use http://www.ballooning.net/doach03.htm as the return address. Who Was First to Fly — an Englishman or theItalian? As may be supposed, it was not long before the balloon was introducedinto England. Indeed, the first successful ascent on record madein our own country took place in the summer of 1784, ten months previousto the fatal venture narrated at the close of the last chapter. Now,it is a remarkable and equally regrettable circumstance that though thefirst ascent on British soil was undoubtedly made by one of our own countrymen,the fact is almost universally forgotten, or ignored, and the credit isaccorded to a foreigner. Let us in strict honesty examine into the case. Vincent Lunardi,an Italian, Secretary to the Neapolitan Ambassador, Prince Caramanico,being in England in the year 1784, determined on organising and personallyexecuting an ascent from London; and his splendid enterprise, which waspresently carried to a successful issue, will form the principal subjectof the present chapter. It will be seen that remarkable success crownedhis efforts, and that his first and ever memorable voyage was carried throughon September 15th of that year.
