How long did it take to build the first airplane?

There is some dispute over who actually made the first flight. The world's first powered flight of a heavier-than-air aircraft is credited to the Wright brothers in Ohio, USA, on 17 December 1903. Their flight lasted 12 seconds, and continued for 120 feet. There are claims, however, that the world's first such flight was undertaken by twenty-five year old New Zealander, Richard Pearse, on 31 March 1902 (some sources quote 1903). Pearse's initial flight was an estimated distance of 300m and ended when the flying machine landed in a hedge some 4 metres off the ground. As Pearse did not realise the historical value of his flight, he did not arrange for any photographs to be taken of his flight, and evidence that it occurred has only been provided through the reports of eye witnesses.


What was the name of the first airplane the Wright brothers made?

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.

What did Orville and Wilbur Wright invent?

They were the first to produce powered flight that was able to carry a human. They are often credited with the invention of powered flight but this was invented by John Stringfellow of Chard, Somerset, England, who produced a steam powered, heavier-than-air plane (yes - steam powered!) a prototype of which he flew for the public at Crystal Palace, London in 1868. The Wright brothers produced the first plane able to carry a human making their first flight on 17th December 1903, 25 years later than Stringfellow. They were also the first to make the controls for a plane that would make such a flight possible. Their initial flight was shorter than the current wingspan of a Jumbo Jet Boeing 747.
