Karl Benz didn't invent the internal combustion engine. Nikolaus Otto invented the internal combustion (4 stroke) engine in 1864. Also, some evidence suggest that two Italian inventors made a working 4 stroke engine in 1854.
Btw, the French company De Dion made an "automobile" driven by steam in the early 1880's and it was actually faster than Benz's car.
De Dion "La Marquise" in 1883. It was driven long distances.
Would it be possible without Karl Friedrich Benz, who patented his first car in Mannheim in 1886? :) The engine was the key to this and everything further
Santos Dumont was the first one to fly an engine airplane with its own impulse in 12 november 1906, the 14-Bis, which won the french airclub contest and reconigzed as the first one to fly an engined boosted airplane , NOT WRIGHT BROTHERS, they were the first ones to fly an NON ENGINE airplane, boosted by a take-off ramp, really, i dont see no airplanes nowadays taking off in a ramp, sorry, SANTOS WINS! FATHER OF AVIATION!

No, the Montgolfier brothers were the first to fly in 1783, with their balloon.

If you built two planes:
The flyer and the 14-bis, using the original materials and engines, just one will fly.
Search on You tube for ( 14-bis replica ) and you will find the real history about the first plane to fly.
After watching the videos, get your conclusion :-)
All arround the world, and each time more and more Americans are finding the real history about the plane, and agree that
Santos Dumont was the first one to fly :-)
