To prove that heavier-than-air flight was possible.
You need to find out the name of the Detroiter first.
the difference between an helicopter creating lift and an airplane creating lift is simple. an airplane creates lift by moving forward and its wing that has an aerofoil shaped will create lift. this gives the lift for the airplane and to fly. for helicopters, instead of the aerofoil is fix like an airplane, the aerofoil wing is rotating and create lift. that is why the helicopter does not need to move forward to gain momentum to create lift. by rotating the aerofoil (the blade) the helicopter can creates enough lift to lift up the helicopter.and that's how it fly..
A spacecraft need a rocket engine (which is powered by on-board oxygen and fuel) to propel itself, an airplane only needs a jet engine (which only needs on-board fuel as it uses oxygen form the air).
You would first need to know what materials you need to buy and what kind of airplane you want to build. You would need a plan for the airplane and what is the best kind of electric rc ariplane to build.
The major difference is that a glider relies on natural forces like wind and thermals to stay airborne, while a powered airplane uses an engine to generate thrust for propulsion. Gliders need to constantly seek out rising air currents to maintain altitude, while powered airplanes can fly independently of external sources of lift.
A single person can build an airplane.

Cars are not self powered now a days. They require the fill up or gas. A self powered car would need to create the power itself.
You don't need a degree, you need a license.
No, they are not powered (they need chains or launchers to get up the first hill) and therefore, they do not have engines.
