First ever plane
The Wright brothers, Orville and Wilbur, built and flew the first successful powered
airplane in 1903 at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. Their aircraft, called the Wright Flyer
used a lightweight engine and a system of wing control that allowed the pilot to steer
and balance the plane in the air. Their first flight lasted only 12 seconds and covered
about 37 meters, but it proved that controlled, powered flight was possible. This achievement
marked the beginning of modern aviation and changed transportation forever. Click on the image to get a link.

History of planes
The history of planes started with early experiments in gliders and airships in the 19th
century, but it wasn’t until 1903 that the Wright brothers made the first successful powered flight.
From there, planes evolved rapidly—biplanes in World War I, faster and more durable monoplanes in World War II,
and eventually jet engines that revolutionized air travel in the mid-20th century. Today, modern planes are sleek,
fuel-efficient, and capable of flying thousands of kilometers nonstop, showing just how far aviation has come from
those tiny, 12-second flights at Kitty Hawk.
