@MissAshify- Yes an amature to be sure. And the printed words for the cc, hearing impaired people will be disappointed, that just goes without saying, well, bye bye, MissAshify have fun in college.
You all believe what you want! I think you're all jealous because a brazilian man was the first one to fly. But as we all know you'll never admit this obvious fact because your ego are bigger than your brains. So accept it! The true airplane inventor was Alberto Santos Dumont, from Brazil!
@pliniaozao Santos was not the first one to fly, flight was around as early as the Civil War. he was not the first one to invent the plane- he made his first public flight in 1906. the Wright brothers made their first flight in 1903.
The original flyer flown at Kill Devil Hills did NOT use a catpult. The reason for the catapult in Dayton was not to get off the ground but to get off the ground FASTER. Since it used a rail instead of wheels it kept the rail to a reasonable length. A catapult was not needed on the sands of Kitty Hawk because of a strong wind. The engine not only kept it in the air but allowed them to climb.
And they were superb engineers. As Mr. Bragg said, they solved one problem after another, step by step. Didn't just cobble something up & hope it all worked, as others evidently did. For example, home-built their own wind tunnel when only a few existed in the whole world, and theirs was the first one put to use for aeronautical research. Their efficient wings and propellers were made using the wind tunnel data.
Nice job for a student project, pox on your detractors.
When they flew in France in 1908, America finally knew. "Far superior to anything yet invented... Not a success but a triumph... This man Wright has conquered the air." The banked turn was a revelation, amazing to the onlookers. Their key contribution was three-axis control including roll control (via wing warping or ailerons).
@tnguyen318 The lightweight and powerful gasoline engine is certainly important. Nikolas Otto, 1876 is generally given the most credit for the invention. The Wrights built their own, with aluminum castings to give extra-light weight. Gasoline was available at the time; before widespread adoption of the engine it was an undesired by-product from refining the kerosene then widely used for lighting.
With all due respect to the Wright Brothers, also great science men, but no. The airplane was invented by Alberto SANTOS DUMONT, a brazilian, exactly, a south american. Start searching about him. Type Santos Dumont and 14 BIS.
@tnguyen318 Santos-Dumont was Brazilian. To this day, schoolchildren in Brazil are taught that he, not the Wrights, invented the airplane. Dumont hopped in 1906 in a public flight but not very far and barely off the ground, with inefficient wings and props, and without lateral control. The Wrights' spectacular late 1905 flights were witnessed by relatively few and the news reporters' accounts were withheld from national distribution. So the 1905 flights don't count according to Brazilians.
(1) Gasoline engine was becoming just good enough.
(2) Octave Chanute, French-American aeronautical expert, knew the Wrights by 1901. He spoke of their work in France. That's why so many of the French efforts look like Wright machines. He didn't understand or convey the importance of their control system & that's one reason the French efforts didn't succeed.

HISTORY LESSON: The first person to build and fly a heavier-than-air machine was the New Zealander Richard Pearce who flew 9 months before The Wright Brothers. The Wright Brothers were the first people to perform what is called ‘controlled’ flight. The first person to actual build & fly a mechanised plane was Richard Pearce.
@CanterburyAtheists Pearce is not credited as the inventor of flight because his claim wasn't well documented and is open to quite some interpretation.

@logoRH Less known are Berblinger's significant contributions to the construction of artificial limbs for medical use, as well as the spring-application in aviation. His invention of a special mechanical joint was also used for the juncture of the wings of his "flying machine."

@logoRH The tricky local winds caused him to crash and he was rescued by fishermen, making him the first survivor of a water immersion accident of a heavier-than-air manned "flight machine." Though he failed in his attempt to be the first man to fly, Berblinger can be regarded as one of the significant aviation pioneers who applied the "heavier than air" principle and paved the way for the more effective glide-flights of Otto Lilienthal (1891) and the Wright Brothers (1902). (Part 2)
@logoRH Albrecht Ludwig Berblinger (1770-1829), known as the "Flying Tailor of Ulm," started with flight experiments in Ulm, Germany, in the early 19th century. He gained experience in downhill gliding with a maneuverable airworthy semi-rigid hang-glider and then attempted to cross the Danube River at Ulm's Eagle's Bastion on the 31st of May 1811. (Part 1)
Shivkar Bapuji Talpade - he was the first person on the planet who flew an aircraft in 1895 , his aircraft design was later seen & copied by many westerns & THE WRIGHT-BROTHERS flew their aircraft which was the copy of Shivkar Bapuji Talpade's aircraft , so WRIGHT-BROTHERS illegaly tooked the credit
@rohitkumarindia I've read Mr. Talpade's story. Most interesting, especially his use of
the principle of solar energy combined with mercury to design his plane ("...vehicle's propulsion system was identified as a "mercury vortex engine" ("The Vedic Ion Machine"), apparently a device similar to ion thruster propulsion developed in the 1970s). Though it appears it's never been officially recorded in both the Indian and foreign publications and journals, I will continue to research this.
@rohitkumarindia Thanks for the information. I will also look into a story of a Brazilian named Santos D'Monte. He made 14 planes beween 1901 and 1904 in his country. And he flew them himself. Many believe that Santos was the first successful flier and not the Wright Brothers. [source: The Times of India; Story: A Flight Over Chowpatty That Made History (Oct 18, 2004)].
The two brothers, flew in the control of three officers and their wives in a kind of hang glider he was catapulted from bera a cliff and glided Dumont in the field of Mars opposite the Eiffel Tower for hundreds of people without the aid of any ramp or catapult, took off, as the planes are up to today, took a turn on the tower a few feet off the ground and landed safely, one thing is falling with style, another is taking off and landing flight. Case closed.
fuck the flight i dont giva fuck 4 fucking first fucking flight all i fuckin care is to fly the fuckin modern airplane who give a fuck about who the fuck did the fuckin first fuckin fligh what the fuck n shit fuck!!!
Nowadays, with computers and controll systems, you can make pratically anything fly. Yes there are unconventional concepts of airplanes that came after the Demoiselle and are successful now. But the Demoiselle, of 1907, is the first successful airplane concept. Not only it is the first, but also is still today the prevailing concept.
The Wright Brothers machines were never adopted as a concept.
The Wright Brothers' machine was NOT an airplane as we know now.
Yes it could fly, yes it did fly but it is simply not the conception.
The first was the Demoiselle from Santo's Dumont in 1908.
It had what it makes an airplane today. A fuselage. Wings (ahead) that could sustain and also controll pitch and roll. A tail (back) that could controll pitch and yaw.
None of the Wright's machines never had those characteristics. They were tailless goose necked machines that never led humans anywhere.
@LesCrapio Leaving aside the staggering misinformation on which your post is based, there have been many successful canard aircraft. The Saab Viggen and Gripen fighters and the designs of Burt Rutan are three examples which come straight to mind. The conventional tractor layout you mention was used by Bleriot and many others before Santos Dumont. Furthermore, what was Dumont's first heavier than air design? A tail first canard.
@LesCrapio Bleriot experimented with tractor layouts towed by power boat on the Seine while Dumont was still with lighter than air craft. Canards are inherently stable if, like all aircraft, balanced properly. Fighters use computers together with reaward centre of gravity for enhanced manouverability. Also Dumont's own first heavier-than-air aircraft was a canard.
@LesCrapio Yes, Mr. Santos-Dumont's concept is still viable today. However, we're talking about several years of improvements after the Wright Brothers' designing, building, testing and flying their aircraft in 1903. Mr. Santos-Dumont certainly does deserve credit for building an aircraft whose design are in many ways, still copied by many others. But to take away from the Wright Brothers, saying their machine was NOT an airplane is FALSE! It had lift, thrust and control. All aircraft do this.
The video has a bit wrong -- they flew the first 'POWERED heavier than air aircraft' there had been many heavier than air gliders including several of their own.
@mary2al THANK YOU SO MUCH for bringing that up. And that's truly the ONLY difference from all the other machines that glided/floated/sailed into the air.
Many hoped to "invent" a flying machine or airplane, but none did before the Wright brothers. What does an airplane do? It planes air, also called sustained flight. None of the previous attempts did this. The Wright brothers invented a machine that could plane air, or sustain flight. So, there can be no doubt that the Wright brothers invented the airplane. As one did not exist before their model. 1 sec ago
A Brazilian named Santos Dumount was the first aviator to fly without any help. He has been considered by the whole world, except some Americans, the inventor of aviation/airplane.
@paivinha95 (Part1) Although Santos-Dumont was an aviator from 1901 to 1906, many of the craft he built were a series of non-rigid airship before 1905. During late 1905 and early 1906, French aviation authorities, seeing the rapid development in aviation at the time, offered prizes for the first heavier-than air machines to be flown for 25 meters and for 100 meters. In 1906, Santos-Dumont built the 14 Bis, a Hargrave-cell biplane, powered by an Antoinette engine, in secrecy.
@paivinha95 (part 2) The aircraft was transported from Neuilly, France where it was built, to nearby Bagatelle, where it could be tested. In order to simulate flight-like conditions, Santos-Dumont attached the aircraft to the belly of his latest dirigible, the Number 14, creating the first attempt to a hybrid airship. Due to this configuration, the plane came to be known as 14-bis. In August 1906, the aircraft was taken back to Bagatelle, where Santos-Dumont performed 'fast-taxi tests.
you can just say that because by this time even a kid can do that......but lets say how can you make a flying car? can you make that? well i think you will be dieng to think how to make that....at least they have the idea that their machine can fly and they did it.
All the Wright brothers did was put a kite together and wave mechanical wings using rusted bicycle parts, going from someone's roof to the ground (something man has been able to do since the Dark Ages). The true inventor is some Brazilian guy you've never heard of.
1. They didn't use "rusty bicycle parts for their 1899 kite, it wasn't even a they, it was Wil, Orv was away on a camping trip.
2. It was flown at a local field in Dayton, not from a roof.
3. The mechanics of the kite proved Wil's theroy of wing warping and the missing piece to controlled flight-I'd say that this kite WAS a MAJOR step in avaiation history, I don't think that you understand. The 'Brazilian" you are refering to is Dumont.
@paivinha95 (Part 3) After some minor adjustments and engine replacement (the first wasn't powerful enough for lift), he won the first of two aeronautics prizes of 3,000 francs for a 25-meter or greater flight. The second competition, this time against a plane built by Gabriel Voisin and Louis Bleriot, had Santos-Dumont fly a distance of 700 feet to win the prize of 1,000 francs. In summary, Santos-Dumont became only the second man to build and fly a powered heavier-than-air aircraft.
Nice Documentary. The pauses between some of the pictures was nerving. But overall well done.
I do have to point out though a well circulated untrue fact that you have stated as have many others that The Wright Brother's historic first flight took place in Kitty Hawk. Well, It Did Not. The Wright Brother's first flight was in Kill Devil Hills. Kitty Hawk just happened to be the next major town over that had a telegraph office from which they sent there news of there historic flight.
Thanks for posting this, it gives the Wright brothers the credit they deserve for all their efforts. Before the Wrights there were unpowered gliders and before that there was balloons, all of which are used still. Im thinking that without a lightweight engine no powered air plane would be possible at that time, so a big credit goes to their engine maker. I dont think anyone flies a warped wing aircraft much at all today., its all about flaps and rudder stuff.
It was he that did everything for the Wright Bros. who finally crossed his challenge.
Hargrave sorted out flight, the engine, etc. But was challenged with a too heavy engine. He made great advancements on this, too, but then died just before his dream was realised.
How dare this documentary not mention the bloke that set it all up.
Lawrence Hargrave should be a household name.
Neil Armstrong is a household name. But the people who put him there should get the credit.
It took till the invention of combustion engines and lightweight ones at that. I dont think someone said "well if we can invent a combustion engine then we can invent flight". I think they said "well now that we have an engine, it may be possible to use it to fly". The Wright brothers were clever.
braziliandoc08: (3) The Wright brothers did not invent the airplane either, they improved on the ideas of earlier visionaries of flight, starting with Leonardo Da Vinci, whose study of flight and his drawings for a practical "flying" machine, the Ornithopter, formed the basis of a blueprint for heavier than air machines.
braziliandoc08: And on Oct 1905, a full year before M. Dumont made his first hop, not sustained flight, the Wright's Flyer III made a 200 mile flight, remarkable by any standards in those times. By conclusion, the Wright brothers were technically superior in airplane technology at that time, meeting ALL standard specifications of what an airplane should be. I hope we should set aside our biases and rely more on technical evaluation.
Braniliandoc08: Beg to disagree sir. An airplane by definition should be manned, heavier-than-air, fully controllable around all three (x,y,z) axes and CAPABLE OF SUSTAINED FLIGHT. M. Alberto Santos-Dumont made his first hop on Oct 23, 1906 at an altitude of 10ft for a 200feet long hop.
The Wright brothers made their first flight on Dec 17, 1903, documented by film, no crowd though, meeting all qualifications to be called an airplane. Con'td.
You forgot one detail, the most important: the Wright Brothers used a CATAPULT to take off their plane. It's not the concept of an airplane, but a glider. Santos Dumont invented the airplane as we know it, with the whole Paris as his witnesses.
@foradilma1 The original flyer flown at Kill Devil Hills did NOT use a catpult. The reason for the catapult in Dayton was not to get off the ground but to get off the ground FASTER. Since they used a rail instead of wheels it kept the rail to a reasonable length. A catapult was not needed on the sands of Kitty Hawk because of a strong wind. The engine not only kept it in the air but allowed them to climb.

Bleriot's first "conventional tractor", the Blériot VIII, was from 1908.
Who are you calling "many others"?
LesCrapio 1 year ago
@LesCrapio Bleriot experimented with tractor layouts towed by power boat on the Seine while Dumont was still with lighter than air craft. Canards are inherently stable if, like all aircraft, balanced properly. Fighters use computers together with reaward centre of gravity for enhanced manouverability. Also Dumont's own first heavier-than-air aircraft was a canard.

@LesCrapio not really? The Wright Brothers build first airplane.

@LesCrapio Yes, Mr. Santos-Dumont's concept is still viable today. However, we're talking about several years of improvements after the Wright Brothers' designing, building, testing and flying their aircraft in 1903. Mr. Santos-Dumont certainly does deserve credit for building an aircraft whose design are in many ways, still copied by many others. But to take away from the Wright Brothers, saying their machine was NOT an airplane is FALSE! It had lift, thrust and control. All aircraft do this.

The video has a bit wrong -- they flew the first 'POWERED heavier than air aircraft' there had been many heavier than air gliders including several of their own.

@mary2al THANK YOU SO MUCH for bringing that up. And that's truly the ONLY difference from all the other machines that glided/floated/sailed into the air.
musicman88keys 1 year ago
Many hoped to "invent" a flying machine or airplane, but none did before the Wright brothers. What does an airplane do? It planes air, also called sustained flight. None of the previous attempts did this. The Wright brothers invented a machine that could plane air, or sustain flight. So, there can be no doubt that the Wright brothers invented the airplane. As one did not exist before their model. 1 sec ago

A Brazilian named Santos Dumount was the first aviator to fly without any help. He has been considered by the whole world, except some Americans, the inventor of aviation/airplane.

The Wright brothers used catapults and trails and not presented themselves in public.
paivinha95 2 years ago
@paivinha95 (Part1) Although Santos-Dumont was an aviator from 1901 to 1906, many of the craft he built were a series of non-rigid airship before 1905. During late 1905 and early 1906, French aviation authorities, seeing the rapid development in aviation at the time, offered prizes for the first heavier-than air machines to be flown for 25 meters and for 100 meters. In 1906, Santos-Dumont built the 14 Bis, a Hargrave-cell biplane, powered by an Antoinette engine, in secrecy.
musicman88keys 1 year ago
14 Bis was the first to fly and has been proven to all the world.
paivinha95 2 years ago
@paivinha95 (part 2) The aircraft was transported from Neuilly, France where it was built, to nearby Bagatelle, where it could be tested. In order to simulate flight-like conditions, Santos-Dumont attached the aircraft to the belly of his latest dirigible, the Number 14, creating the first attempt to a hybrid airship. Due to this configuration, the plane came to be known as 14-bis. In August 1906, the aircraft was taken back to Bagatelle, where Santos-Dumont performed 'fast-taxi tests.

you can just say that because by this time even a kid can do that......but lets say how can you make a flying car? can you make that? well i think you will be dieng to think how to make that....at least they have the idea that their machine can fly and they did it.
luftwaffe789456123 2 years ago
All the Wright brothers did was put a kite together and wave mechanical wings using rusted bicycle parts, going from someone's roof to the ground (something man has been able to do since the Dark Ages). The true inventor is some Brazilian guy you've never heard of.
MyMerlin1 2 years ago
MyMerlin-You are SO wrong.
1. They didn't use "rusty bicycle parts for their 1899 kite, it wasn't even a they, it was Wil, Orv was away on a camping trip.
2. It was flown at a local field in Dayton, not from a roof.
3. The mechanics of the kite proved Wil's theroy of wing warping and the missing piece to controlled flight-I'd say that this kite WAS a MAJOR step in avaiation history, I don't think that you understand. The 'Brazilian" you are refering to is Dumont.

@MyMerlin1 the Wright Brothers made their flight so hidden and Santos Dumont always performed in public to show that it had nothing to hide.
14 Bis was the first to fly and has been proven to all the world.

@paivinha95 But let's not forget they had a still photographer and a motion picture recording camera there to film the first historic powered flight.
musicman88keys 1 year ago
@paivinha95 (Part 3) After some minor adjustments and engine replacement (the first wasn't powerful enough for lift), he won the first of two aeronautics prizes of 3,000 francs for a 25-meter or greater flight. The second competition, this time against a plane built by Gabriel Voisin and Louis Bleriot, had Santos-Dumont fly a distance of 700 feet to win the prize of 1,000 francs. In summary, Santos-Dumont became only the second man to build and fly a powered heavier-than-air aircraft.

Nice Documentary. The pauses between some of the pictures was nerving. But overall well done.
I do have to point out though a well circulated untrue fact that you have stated as have many others that The Wright Brother's historic first flight took place in Kitty Hawk. Well, It Did Not. The Wright Brother's first flight was in Kill Devil Hills. Kitty Hawk just happened to be the next major town over that had a telegraph office from which they sent there news of there historic flight.

Thanks for posting this, it gives the Wright brothers the credit they deserve for all their efforts. Before the Wrights there were unpowered gliders and before that there was balloons, all of which are used still. Im thinking that without a lightweight engine no powered air plane would be possible at that time, so a big credit goes to their engine maker. I dont think anyone flies a warped wing aircraft much at all today., its all about flaps and rudder stuff.

The Wright Brothers are admirable 'Johnnie come latelies' when you consider Lawrence Hargrave's contribution.
Please investigate Lawrence Hargrave.
He doesn't get a mention at all in this.
Alas.
naganokumas 2 years ago
Lawrence Hargrave.
It was he that did everything for the Wright Bros. who finally crossed his challenge.
Hargrave sorted out flight, the engine, etc. But was challenged with a too heavy engine. He made great advancements on this, too, but then died just before his dream was realised.
How dare this documentary not mention the bloke that set it all up.
Lawrence Hargrave should be a household name.
Neil Armstrong is a household name. But the people who put him there should get the credit.
naganokumas 2 years ago
It took till the invention of combustion engines and lightweight ones at that. I dont think someone said "well if we can invent a combustion engine then we can invent flight". I think they said "well now that we have an engine, it may be possible to use it to fly". The Wright brothers were clever.

braziliandoc08: correction please, not a 200 mile flight, rather a 20 MILE flight. Sorry, finger slipped? hehehehe

braziliandoc08: (3) The Wright brothers did not invent the airplane either, they improved on the ideas of earlier visionaries of flight, starting with Leonardo Da Vinci, whose study of flight and his drawings for a practical "flying" machine, the Ornithopter, formed the basis of a blueprint for heavier than air machines.
labuyo58 2 years ago
braziliandoc08: And on Oct 1905, a full year before M. Dumont made his first hop, not sustained flight, the Wright's Flyer III made a 200 mile flight, remarkable by any standards in those times. By conclusion, the Wright brothers were technically superior in airplane technology at that time, meeting ALL standard specifications of what an airplane should be. I hope we should set aside our biases and rely more on technical evaluation.

braziliandoc08 2 years ago
Braniliandoc08: Beg to disagree sir. An airplane by definition should be manned, heavier-than-air, fully controllable around all three (x,y,z) axes and CAPABLE OF SUSTAINED FLIGHT. M. Alberto Santos-Dumont made his first hop on Oct 23, 1906 at an altitude of 10ft for a 200feet long hop.
The Wright brothers made their first flight on Dec 17, 1903, documented by film, no crowd though, meeting all qualifications to be called an airplane. Con'td.
labuyo58 2 years ago
@labuyo58
You forgot one detail, the most important: the Wright Brothers used a CATAPULT to take off their plane. It's not the concept of an airplane, but a glider. Santos Dumont invented the airplane as we know it, with the whole Paris as his witnesses.
foradilma1 8 months ago
@foradilma1 The original flyer flown at Kill Devil Hills did NOT use a catpult. The reason for the catapult in Dayton was not to get off the ground but to get off the ground FASTER. Since they used a rail instead of wheels it kept the rail to a reasonable length. A catapult was not needed on the sands of Kitty Hawk because of a strong wind. The engine not only kept it in the air but allowed them to climb.
