January 30, 1948) and Wilbur (April 16, 1867 - May 30,
1912), were two Americans who are generally credited[1][2][3] with
inventing and building the world's first successful airplane and
making the first controlled, powered and sustained heavier-than-air
human flight, on December 17, 1903. In the two years afterward, the
brothers developed their flying machine into the first practical
fixed-wing aircraft. Although not the first to build and fly
experimental aircraft, the Wright brothers were the first to invent
aircraft controls that made fixed-wing powered flight
possible.
