On Great White Wings

Oliver and Wilber Wright are testing their flight in the open sands. Caption: on the sands of Kitty Hawk, North Carolina.

Self-taught scientists and engineers, Wilbur and Orville Wright taught the world how to fly and are one of America’s greatest success stories. Their first successful flight, on North Carolina's Outer Banks, took place in December 1903. Next, they returned to Dayton, Ohio and continued to develop and test the world's first practical airplane.
