I remember that exact moment. The moment where my life would change with the next step I took. Looking out the window of the airplane, I wondered how my new home, Hong Kong, would be like. So many questions were whizzing around in my head. “Will the kids at my school be nice?” “How are the teachers going to be like?” “How will I communicate with the locals there? I don’t even speak Chinese!” As the thundering roar of the plane began to fill the cabin and the safety announcements began to play, I…

To say that Wilbur and Orville created the first aircraft is not necessarily true. Gliders and hot air balloons have been around longer than airplanes. The Wright Brothers were the first person to build a "Heavier than air" aircraft. The study of aviation has seriously been studied since the 15th century. Da Vinci was the first person to seriously study aviation. He tried to copy birds with flapping wings. However, humans are not capable of that so Da Vinci created Ornithopters . Leonardo…

The Wright brothers had one heck of a life. They are two guys that will forever be remembered for their ideas and old techniques. They had a dream that they stuck with through all the failures and soon came to be the most used advance technology used today. Both of the brothers were drop outs who choose ideas over school. They made a huge impact on the world today and will always be the "fathers of aviation." If it was not for the brothers, the U.S. would be different. We might 've lost some…

The wrights invention would go on…

This quote comes from a man that served our country as an American Fighter Ace in World War 1. He had twenty-six aerial victories and he earned the Medal of Honor for being the best ace in the war. We still have to give credit to the first founders of aviation because without them we wouldn 't be where were are today. Aviation still consists of some of the technologies that were…
