Best Answer

They made the first powered, controlled flight in a heavier than air vehicle. In Kitty Hawk North Carolina, Wilbur and Orville Wright kept their plane in the air for 12 seconds but they were still recorded as the first people to fly in a powered craft. Many other people had flown before using hot air balloons or gliders but these were not considered true aeroplanes.
