The first successful powered airplane was flown by the Wright brothers on December 17, 1903. The plane was named the Wright Flyer I.The Wright brothers designed gliders previous to the creation of the airplane. The gliders were named the Wright Glider.
The person who invented gliders inspired the Wright brothers.
They made at least 2 gliders before their first powered aircraft.
Gliders, 1853, by George Cayley Motorised flight, 1903, Wright brothers.
The Wrights did NOT fly the 'first airplane' . The Wright brothers were the first to achieve controlled powered flight. Gliders, man-made wings, and balloons were around long before the flight of the Wright Brothers flying machine, the Flyer I, on December 17, 1903, at Kill Devil Hills near Kitty Hawk NC.
They tried many jobs such as printing and repairing bicycles. Then they moved onto their childhood dream and started experimenting in gliders before putting a propellor on them
The Wright brothers built at least three gliders before the Wright Flyer. They built the gliders in 1900, 1901, and 1902. They incorporated in their design ideas from other pioneers of the time such as Augustus Herring, Otto Lilienthal, Octave Chanute, and George Cayley. Many gliders were built before the Wright brothers built their airplanes, but they were built by other pioneers.

they invented bikesThe Wright brothers DID NOT invent "the airplane" OR bikes !They built THEIR airplane (NOT the first airplane) in 1902.
The Wright Brothers Invented it in 1901
The Wright brothers took almost eight years to design the first controlled powered aircraft. Gliders and balloons were around long before the first successful flight of the Wright Brothers biplane, the Wright Flyer, on December 17, 1903, at Kill Devil Hills near Kitty Hawk NC.
