In childhood, they were ordinary yard boys, hooligans and inventors. They invented, built and designed. They gained special respect and authority among their peers by the fact that they built an artificial plane from an old cot, neighbors' chairs and a broken fan, which flew like a real one, and sat, as the Chief himself noted, like an artificial one. They circled the globe on it, for which they received the nickname "Pilot Brothers".—Bazza the Beast
