Do we have any aviation historians on board who can tell whether this film is authentic? It is on a European film archives web site, says it is from 1909, showing Wilbur Wright doing a demonstration flight in Italy. The aircraft carries 2 people and apparently has 2 engines (2 props) -- which makes me wonder whether it is authentic. Were the Wright Bros. building twins then?
