LYCOS RETRIEVER 
1905: Great Britain
built 182 days ago
During 1905, the brothers attempted to sell their aircraft in Europe using a rather unusual sales approach. To protect their future patent, they would not show the aircraft to a prospective buyer until a price was negotiated and paid. They guaranteed that if the plane did not fly as promised, they would release the buyer from the contract. The brothers wrote the War Office in Great Britain, but after some initial interest, Britain refused to agree to purchase anything without seeing the plane fly.

The best seat on your course may well be in the JohnDeere 1905. This five-unit reel mower features an optional deluxe cabin, prepared with integrated air conditioning for those days when you just can’t beat the heat. A great example of operating comfort is an integrated armrest control for convenient operation. Reels are lifted or lowered merely by toggle switches integrated in the armrest control. And all needed driving controls are right under your fingertips.

Dissatisfied with its so-called "brother Union", the NZRU negotiated with the English RFU for a New Zealand team to tour Britain in 1905 - the first official rugby visit from the southern hemisphere. Discarding notions of an "Australasian" team, New Zealand determined to go it alone against the Home nations.
