The first of the three aviation meetings at Cholet in western France took place in July 1910. Three airmen were engaged to demonstrate flying distances, manoeuvres and altitude. The airmen were Leon Versepuy, Emile Obre and Roland Garros who had just gained his pilot's licence. The more famous second event took place in June 1912 when 35 machines were entered into a triangular race between Angers - Cholet - Saumur - Angers. It was a 97-mile circuit flown between 9 am and 7.30 pm, three times on Sunday, 16 June, and four times the next day, making a total of 684 miles. Of the 35 registered participants, 28 aviators qualified, and 11 took off. Due to poor weather conditions, the race was a disaster, but it was won by Roland Garros. At the back of the scrap album for the 1912 event are both size versions of the famous colour poster by Lessieux & Carrey. The third and final meeting in Cholet took place on 15 March 1914, just five months before the outbreak of the First World War. Once again poor weather interfered but not without Roland Garros attempting and succeeding in the newly fashionable loop the loop (see following lot). To an amazed audience of thousands the legendary Garros completes the manoeuvre and finally lands 'with the grace and lightness of a butterfly landing on a flower'. (3)
