     Airplanes have taken to the air for just over one hundred years, but for more than two thousand years the humble kite has graced the sky. And just as the early bi-planes have given way to larger, faster and more amazing aircraft, so too the kite continues to evolve.
     Come, take a look at some contemporary flights of fancy and see how high kites and the people who build and fly them have soared.
