Wright Brothers | Wright Flyer Misconceptions
Were the Wright brothers born in Dayton, Ohio, or Ohio at all? To say yes is a partially true statement.
Nearly every piece of video footage shows the Wright Flyer being launched by a catapult system, but was the Wright Flyer flown during the first flights launched by such a device?
If watching a video that claims to be the first flight of the Wright Brothers, pay attention to how the Brothers were sitting as they piloted the Wright Flyer. If sitting upright, the Wright Flyer being flown by Orville or Wilbur was a much later model than the Wright Flyer I version that first flew on December 17, 1903 in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina.
