First Flight at Kittyhawk - The Wright Brothers

It took four tries for their plane to fly 852 feet in 59 seconds on the pastures of Huffman Prairie in Ohio. Orville proclaimed that the flight was a success.

On November 9, 1904 the Wright brothers made four complete circles with their plane, which took five minutes and four seconds to complete. And this was the beginning of aviation, as we now know it.
