Celebrating The Anniversary Of The Wright Brothers’ First Flight

Today, December 17th, marks the 121st anniversary of the first flight. The flight was famously conducted by the Wright brothers in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. The two brothers, Orville and Wilbur, are credited with the invention, building, and flying of the world’s first successful airplane. It is known as the first controlled and sustained flight of an aircraft. Since then, over 121 years later, the aviation industry has changed remarkably, with the introduction of considerably more powerful and larger aircraft over the years. Let’s take a look at the first flight of an airplane, as well as how the general aviation industry has changed since then.
