No, many aircraft flew short flights before the Wrights. Their fame was in flying the first practical powered aeroplane.
it's wright brothers and no, they made the first sucsessfull flight! :)
No, it was in December
Designs for winged flight go back to Ancient Egypt. Si George Cayley built and launched manned gliders around 1849. The first powered aeroplane to make a flight was built by Orville and Wilbur Wright. On 17 December 1903 near Kittyhawk, North Carolina, Orville piloted the "Wright Flyer" in a flight of 120 feet in 12 seconds, at a speed of 6.8 miles per hour.
In 1901 in their glider.
The Wright brothers developed the first effective control systems for aircraft and went to great lengths to make engines lighter.
Wilbur did...alsomore info..--------> A man named Otto Lilienthal inspired the Wright brothers to build their first airplane. He glided on a hill in a big kite-type thing called a hang glider. The brothers really liked this idea and kept thinking about it.When building airplanes, the brothers knew the plane had three requirements to meet. It would need wings to lift it in the air, power to propel it, and a way to control it. The Wrights had the most difficult time figuring out how to control the plane. The plane needed to go up and down, and side to side. Other inventors like Lilienthal and Chanute had previous success with the wings and power. Orville and Wilbur knew that it was very important to be able to control the plane. They knew the pilot needed to keep the plane balanced just like a person riding a bike needed to keep the bike balanced. They thought about how a bird flies and wanted the plane to operate like a flying bird.they had a successful experiment on december 17, 1903 creating an airplane. before the wright brothers, scientists has had numerous attemps to create an airplane and get it to work. these included kites, hot air balloons, air ships, gliders, etc. the first airplane evermade (by the wright brothers) flew only 10 feet off the ground and travled 120 feet and landed 12 seconds after take off.The Wright brothers were the first people to make a motor-powered airplane that could carry one pilot. The brothers flew their first successful plane on December 17, 1903. The airplane could fit one person and that was the pilot. The pilot had to lay down in the airplane. Wilbur flew their longest flight. It was 852 feet and was flown in 59 seconds. the first airplane was made of wood, metal and fabric to strech the wings.
Leonardo Davinci. He never had a working model or even a model for that matter - but he still designed one.the wright brothers == While the Wright brother made the first WORKING aircraft, Leonardo Da Vinci designed the first one. It's in his notebooks.
no. the wright brothers first plane did not suceed. it took many trys to make it "wright"
The Wright Brothers. (Wilbur and Orville Wright).
They made the first plane to fly in air in 1903.

There were many who tried to make an air plane, but the first one to succeed were the Wright bros.
On the day of the first flight of the Wright Flyer, the brothers did a coin-toss to decide which of them would make the first flight. Wilbur won.

The wright brothers made their first human flight on December 17, 1903.
