Orville and Wilbur Wright

Orville and Wilbur Wright were American inventors and aviation pioneers who built and flew the first successful powered airplane in 1903. They studied bird flight to improve their designs and developed innovative control systems that allowed the plane to steer and maintain stability. Their Flyer aircraft achieved the first controlled, sustained flight with a pilot aboard, marking the beginning of modern aviation. Their work revolutionized transportation, enabling human flight and connecting the world more closely. The Wright brothers' inventive spirit, technical skill, and perseverance laid the foundation for the entire field of aviation.
