June and Tuesday 1st July 2008 shootings will take place in Gorizia’s
airport. This fiction will be a documentary dedicated to flight pioneers
brothers Rusjan from Gorizia. Lives of Eduardo and Giuseppe Rusjan will

On December 1909 Eduardo Rusjan did his first flight experience in « Campagnuzza’s fields », Other flights were done in « Campagna Grande » , where there is now Gorizia’s Airport. In these fields, Eduardo together with his brother Pepi, constructed a big hut inside which he worked on his planes. After constructin them, he tried them on different fields. After smal flights, they improved their airplanes and they could finally fly at a speed of 50 km per hour for 15 minutes. After that, exactly
in the place where brothers Rusjan made their first flight, a flight school
for austro-hungarian army was constructed.
