Why did wright brothers make the airplane?

Answer 1

so they could fly...um i thought that was pretty self expainatory...

They were overwhelmed with the idea of flight they worked years on creating the first man made flying machine at first they made the glider in 1902 which almost killed one of the brothers. Then they wanted to control the airplane so they created the power wright flyer 1 using propellers which wasn't the end of their long journey of flight they never actually perfected it but when people picked up off their work Orville Wright and Wilbur Wrights names most commonly known as the wright brothers names are and probably forever will be sketched in the history books. Believe it or not but they were owners of a bicycle shop which somehow gave them the idea of flight.

At least this is what i learned in school hope most of its right, hope it helped! The first answer isn't mine that's someone else's by the way.
