1903 wright brothers plane

This day December 17th is a very significant day in the history of aviation.

In 1903 - The Wright Flyer became the first powered, heavier-than-air machine to achieve controlled, sustained flight with a pilot aboard, and here we were looking at the actual machine!

Not a replica but the 'real thing' - slightly mended of course after all these years.
