The first successful helicopter flight is credited to Paul Cornu, a French engineer, who flew his design in 1907. However, it was Igor Sikorsky, a Russian-American aviation pioneer, who significantly advanced helicopter technology and is often recognized for creating the first practical helicopter, the Vought-Sikorsky VS-300, which flew in 1939. Sikorsky's innovations laid the groundwork for modern helicopter design.
Igor sikorsky
The very first piloted helicopter was invented by Paul Cornu in 1907, but this design didn't work. Later, a Frenchman Etienne Oehmichen built and flew a helicopter 1 km in 1924. An earlier practical helicopter that flew for a decent amount of space was the "German Focke-Wulf Fw 61."
The first transverse twin rotor helicopter was invented in 1936.The Focke-Wulf Fw 61 was invented by Heinrich Focke and flew on 26 Jun 1936.

The development of the helicopter took place at many places simultaneously, and many helicopters flew before Paul E Williams was born. African-American Paul E Williams was involved in the development of the "first useful helicopter" in particular the Lockheed Model 186 (XH-51). However this helicopter was not produced until 1962. He invented improvements to helicopter design, he didn't invent the helicopter. See the related questions for links to his aircraft.
It was 36 years between the first airplane flight and the first helicopter flight. The Wrights flew in 1903, Sikorsky flew his first helicopter in 1939.
Igor sikorsky
Igor never flew a helicopter, but he did build one though.

The answer you are looking for is in 1907 by a man named Paul Cornu. if you want to look at where i got my information search the question "who was the first person to fly a helicopter. -manwithplan
The first piloted helicopter was invented by Paul Cornu in 1907 and it was not successful. One of the first successful helicopters was built by Etienne Oehmichen in 1924 and flew for 1 kilometer.
It was the V300.

Yes, helicopters flew successfully by 1946
