Thanks Bruce for this discovery!

Aurel Vlaicu, the pilot from the story, was a very famous personality in
Rumania. We learned about him at school.

Interesting question, Dana. I typed some search terms into Google and found
the following account of a flying machine in Czernowitz (and an interesting
Cz. family history) here:

There is also an eBay listing from December showing the Bleriot plane in
Bukowina in 1910:

Maybe there is more out there, but at least this is a start.
