The thing about Lilian Bland is misguiding at least. She didn’t built it herself aloneShe didn’t use “trees”, she used woodShe didn’t use just a bottle and an ear trumpet
After the first trials as a glider, she got an engine from Avro. Because the gas tank was not fitted by the time the engine was, she used a whiskey bottle as a gas tank and the gas was poured into the engine though the ear trumpet.
