Wright brothers' first flight
The Wright Brothers did not solely rely on engine power to lift their flying machines off the ground. Instead, they emphasized the importance of piloting skills. Through over a thousand gliding flights from the top of Kill Devil Hill, the brothers were able to identify the engineering principles that allow for lift and the necessary controls to maintain an aircraft in flight.
