@paulomuniruequed yep we know several people flew before those bozos did but they just were not offically recorded and hyped.

Is that expansive to built today a simple plane like that on 0$:40 on this video?

[DEANMARITA]

can you repeat the question in english?

[jerryaltman]

oK. How expansive would be to build today a airplane replica, or quite simillar, to the biplane airplane that we see on 00:40 sec timecode in this video?

The plane shown appears to be a Sopwith 1 1/2 strutter. Plans are available from Replicraft. I bought their Pup plans and I'm building one now. Expect to pay about $10,000 USD. That's cheap, using car engine, cheap instruments. Not counting pilot's license, of course.
