19/12/2024 - 10 am - Nova Documentary - Wright Brothers' Flying Machine -
The secrets of the Wright Brothers' innovative genius are explored in this historic episode, as NOVA marks the 121st anniversary of powered flight. Their first successful flight, on North Carolina's Outer Banks, took place in December 1903. NOVA examines a working model of the Wright Model B, first flown publicly in 1908. #PBSAmerica #NOVA #WrightBrothers #Aviation #History

If you ask most people in the U.S. who invented the airplane, they would likely respond by saying it was the Wright Brothers. Orville and Wilbur Wright made the first controlled, motor-operated airplane flight 4 miles south of Kitty Hawk on December 17, 1903.
That’s why Wright Brothers Day is celebrated annually on December 17th. This day not only commemorates the achievements of these two brothers but also the achievement of human flight.
The history of this holiday can be traced back to the 1960s when a joint resolution of the U.S. Congress declared December 17, 1963, as Wright Brothers Day. Although this holiday was originally supposed to be just a one-off celebration for that year, Congress amended the resolution to designate December 17th as Wright Brothers Day going forward. This allows U.S. Presidents to issue an annual proclamation encouraging people to observe this holiday.
Wilbur Wright was born on April 16, 1867, near Millville, Indiana. Orville Wright was born on August 19, 1871. Their father, Milton Wright, was a bishop in the Church of the United Brethren in Christ, and as a result of his duties, had to travel frequently.
When he returned from these trips, he would often bring back small toys for his five children. In 1878, he brought back a small model helicopter for his boys that was made from bamboo, paper, cork, and powered by a rubber band.
This model was based on a design by French aeronautical pioneer Alphonse Penaud. The toy fascinated the boys and resulted in them developing a lifelong interest in flying and aeronautics. The rest is history.
We know there are probably quite a few people who are looking for some cool aviation facts to talk about on Wright Brothers Day, so we decided to list a few of them below. Hopefully, the following factoids will prove both interesting and fun to anyone reading them.
