About this listen
Orville and Wilbur Wright were 2 American air travel leaders who are commonly credited with developing, structure, and flying the world's first effective motor-driven plane. On December seventeenth, 1903, four miles (6 kilometers) south of Cat Hawk, North Carolina, they made the first regulated, supported flight of a powered, heavier-than-air airplane with the Wright Leaflet. The brothers were also the first to develop airplane controls, leading the way for fixed-wing powered flight.
The Wright brothers customized their flying device, the Wright Leaflet II, in the year 1904 to 1905, to perform longer-running and more aerodynamic flights, followed by the Wright Leaflet III, the first totally useful fixed-wing airplane.
Their preliminary patent in the USA didn't claim to be the creation of a flying device, but rather a system of aerodynamic control that customized the surface areas of a flying automobile.
Let’s see what else happened in their lives, and how they have impacted our civilization with their keen aviation skills.
