| Synopsis: |
Alfred J. Buttermouse, a grand-eared flying rodent, flutters down on the beach of a small coastal town where he meets two men carrying a contraption that to Buttermouse looks very much like an extremely large kite. The men's names are Orville and Wilbur - the Wright brothers. Buttermouse and the brothers become very good friends, sharing their experiences of gliding on the wind. But gliding is not flying. The bond that pulls them together is the desire to master the art of controlled flight. Sharing what he learned on his two previous glides, Buttermouse helps the twosome progress from simple, wooden fixed-wing flight, susceptible to the vagaries of the takeoff field, the wind, and the shifting weight of its prone pilot, to a fully mechanized machine, capable of extended and controlled flight. In return, the brothers help Buttermouse perfect his flying skills by allowing him to train in one of their new inventions - the wind tunnel. Hopefully, his newly acquired skills will enable him to find his way home. |
