How
It Works
 On
the morning of December 17
1903, history was made off
the dunes of Kitty Hawk North
Carolina. For the first
time in history man had achieved
controlled flight in a heavier
than air machine. The
Wright Brothers had achieved
what all of their predecessors
had only dreamed about.
Having only very limited resources,
they showed great scientific
ingenuity. The Wrights motivation
and determination helped them
overcome many obstacles to
become the first to fly.
The world as we knew it would
never be the same.
