They were mechanically inclined anyway, and ran a bicycle factory and were fascinated with flight since childhood when their father gave them a flying model. They could see flight was going to be a big thing and worked hard to get in on it.
1903 The Wrights didn't invent the first airplane. -They built and flew the first powered, controllable aircraft. -Many men had built different aircraft before them, but none were successful at long, controlled flight.
The 'Kitty Hawk' was not an airplane. It was the place where the Wrights tested and flew their aircraft.

The telephone and the airplane
I guess they had a dream of a better way to get around than the bicycle. I am serious.
1903 The Wrights didn't invent the first airplane. -They built and flew the first powered, controllable aircraft. -Many men had built different aircraft before them, but none were successful at long, controlled flight.
Their first fully practical airplane was built in 1905. (Their first powered, sustained and controlled airplane was built in 1903.)
The Wright Brothers did NOT actually INVENT the airplane. They were builders and experimenters who followed the experiments of other inventors and builders of the time, and modified and improved other designs. The Wrights were the first to fly, control and safely land a motorized aircraft carrying a human pilot.
The Wrights experimented with their first aircraft in Dayton, Ohio

Orllive and Wilbur Wrights flew the first airplane in Kitty Hawk.

I don't really understand what you mean but the Wrights "invented" the first airplane in 1903 i think.
Igor Sikorsky was the first person to fly in an airplane, in his 1913 airplane called "The Grand." The Wrights were the first people to fly an airplane, but you fly ON a Wright Flyer--it's very open. Sikorsky invented the enclosed cockpit.
