1903-The First Flight

Since 1899, Wilbur and Orville Wright had been scientifically experimenting with the concepts of flight. They labored in relative obscurity, while the experiments of Samuel Langley of the Smithsonian were followed in the press and underwritten by the War Department. Yet Langley, as others before him, had failed to achieve powered flight. They relied on brute power to keep their theoretically stable machines aloft, sending along a hapless passenger and hoping for the best. It was the Wrights' genius and vision to see that humans would have to fly their machines, that the problems of flight could not be solved from the ground. In Wilbur's words, "It is possible to fly without motors, but not without knowledge and skill." With over a thousand glides from atop Big Kill Devil Hill, the Wrights made themselves the first true pilots. These flying skills were a crucial component of their invention. Before they ever attempted powered flight, the Wright brothers were masters of the air.

Explains

SINCE that blustery, gray mid-day in December of 1903 on the Outer Banks of North Carolina when The First Flight was accomplished by one of the Wright brothers in a powered, heavier-than-air controllable aeroplane, pretenders and contenders have risen up, each like a mythical Phoenix, to claim the laurels of being the first aviator of powered flight. Alexander Mozhaiski, Clement Ader, Gustave (Weisskopf) Whitehead and a number of others have been proposed (or have proposed themselves) as preceding the Wrights into the air. Some of these claims are still asserted from time to time and we can expect that as the Centennial of Flight approaches we will see them reasserted, yet again.
