AKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Today we are so used to seeing planes in the sky, we overlook that individuals
were not constantly ready to fly like feathered creatures. A few early pilots
felt that building wings like those of feathered creatures would be sufficient
to achieve flight. The Wright Siblings, then again, realized that flying would
not be so straightforward. They were eager to think and work— what's more,
scratch their heads in perplexity and think and work again for quite a long
time to achieve that first flight.
Wilbur and Orville Wright were two American inventors and established
something that we call today aviation. In 1903 the Wright brothers
invented the first powered, sustained and controlled airplane flight. They
transcended their own way point two years later they built and flew the first
fully operational airplane called The Wright Flyer, whch led to a new
beginning.

THE 1900 GLIDER
The Wright Brothers’ 1900 aircraft was flown The 1900 aircraft was relatively large: it
repeatedly at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, had a 17-foot wingspan, a 5-foot chord,
during the fall of 1900, mostly as a kite but and 4 feet between the wings. Without the
also as a piloted glider.The brothers’ main pilot, the 1900 craft weighed about 50
concern at this time was to learn how to pounds. In 1900, glider pilots usually flew
in a vertical position. The Wright Brothers
control the forces on an aircraft. In 1900, the

brothers decided to test wing-warping on an
lot of aerodynamic drag that would slow the
aircraft that was large enough to carry a
glider down. They chose instead to
person. The pilot could control the roll of the streamline their aircraft by having the
aircraft by using a foot pedal. The pedal was pilot lie horizontally on the lower wing. The

unequal forces on the wings, which would roll on the front of the aircraft, and no tail.
