There were many other people trying to invent the airplane even before the Wright brothers. It eventually became a race, and obviously the Wright brothers won.

The Wright Bothers. When you google that, you will find many more answers :)
1903 The Wrights didn't invent the first airplane. -They built and flew the first powered, controllable aircraft. -Many men had built different aircraft before them, but none were successful at long, controlled flight.
