December 22, 200817 yr On Dec. 17, 1903, Orville and Wilbur Wright made the first powered aircraft flight, for a timespan of 12 seconds. The flight was shorter than today's economy section of a Boeing 747. Nevertheless, it was a huge step forward. Incredible when you look at how airplanes evolved from the Wright Flyer to the Boeing 787/Airbus A350/beyond!Happy 105th Anniversary of Flight everyone!Not only that, but have a very Merry Christmas/Hanukkah/your festival and a happy new year! Thanks to everyone at the AVSIM Staff for all your dedicated service.
