Talk:Alberto Santos Duval

Seems like a cool guy. Too bad about the end of his life. Makes me like him that much more. I so prefer biographical entries that give a hint as to the person's personality. This does that. Many thanks! Zahir 10:43, 25 November 2005 (PST)

This biography is closely modelled on *here*'s Alberto Santos Dumont (notice mont <-> val). Santos Dumont, something of a Brasilian national hero, díd commit suicide in Guarujá after a deep disillusionment about use of aircraft in warfare. Do not credit my imagination overmuch.

Not to sound too morbid but there would be something poetic about the (fictional) Alberto commiting suicide by jumping off a cliff (realy flying for the first and last time).--Marc Pasquin 15:14, 25 November 2005 (PST)

No sooner said than done! Thanks - Kyrmse 12:43, 26 November 2005 (PST)
