Did the wright brothers build the first glider?
No. Gliders had been long around before the Wrights, Otto Lilienthal, whose work they studied extensively. Lilienthal was among the first (of many) to build gliders that were reliable and flew predictably, time after time. In aviation, 'firsts' are pretty irrelevant. To do something repeatedly and reliably is a much better proof of concept. The Wright flyer was one of the last glider-inspired designs before the 'modern' layout became the norm. "To invent an airplane is nothing. To build one is something. But to fly is everything." -Otto Lilienthal more info here: http://hawaii.psychology.msstate.edu/LilienthalMuseum/Lilmuseum.html
