Very elegant in all aspects but only favoring the Wright brothers and forget totally of other pioneers like Glen Curtiss and Europeans aviators who really contributed a lot and were blocked by the ridiculous Patent that stop the development of aviation. if someone raise an arm would be sued, like 37 pioneers were. They're free to create without worring about patents,any control was natural obvious,Chanute told them not to put wing warping in the patent, they did then stop talking to him.

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, complete a powered-flight was Richard Pearce.
