Who created the first airplane ever?

Question

Please, I want to know!!!!

Answer 1

In 1899, after Wilbur Wright had written a letter of request to the Smithsonian Institution for information about flight experiments, the Wright Brothers designed their first aircraft: a small, biplane glider flown as a kite to test their solution for controlling the craft by wing warping. Wing warping is a method of arching the wingtips slightly to control the aircraft's rolling motion and balance.
=====================================
Sir George Cayley
It wasn’t until the turn of the nineteenth century that an English baronet from Yorkshire, Sir George Cayley, created a flying machine with fixed wings, a propulsion system, and movable control surfaces. This was the fundamental concept of the airplane. Sir George Cayley also built the first true airplane, a kite mounted on a stick with a movable tail. It was crude, but it proved his idea worked, and from that first glider evolved the amazing technological marvels that move us faster than ever before.

Answer 2

The Wright Brothers of Dayton, Ohio get historical credit for the first plane to fly in 1903, however there are 2 other groups that claim they had a plane earlier. The brothers were using lift data which was available and using gliders they figured out the data were wrong. They calculated their own data using a mechanism attached to a bicycle which they could ride and generate the lift data. The other key thing they needed to figure out was a control mechanism. This they figured out by learning how to warp a wing (basically a way to flex the canvas wing) to control the plane. They also had to design the first aircraft engine. An extraordinary accomplishment for 1903 for 2 bicycle mechanics given the technology of the day. They did their work on the plane in Ohio and did their test flights at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. I hope this helps. I hope you get to visit these historical places someday. There is a great exhibit at the Smithsonian in Washington, DC.

Answer 7

The first recorded powered flight was the Wright brothers at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina.

1891: German engineer, Otto Lilienthal, studied aerodynamics and worked to design a glider that would fly. He was the first person to design a glider that could fly a person and was able to fly long distances.

He was fascinated by the idea of flight. Based on his studies of birds and how they fly, he wrote a book on aerodynamics that was published in 1889 and this text was used by the Wright Brothers as the basis for their designs.

After more than 2500 flights, he was killed when he lost control because of a sudden strong wind and crashed into the ground.

Answer 8

Da Vinci created the first model

Wright Bros. made the first airplane

Answer 9

Ted Smith of Colne (Lancs, England ) built and flew the first aeroplane.
Made entirely of rhubarb and powered by custard, the thing crumbled in a bid to shake off the hungry birds that had gathered, on it's wings.
This marvellous invention is of course where the term "Pie in the sky" was developed.
A half baked idea? Some might say so...
Ted Smith a real tasty Geezer!

Answer 10

Orville and Wilbur Wright are generally credited with making the first controlled, powered, heavier-than-air flight on December 17, 1903 in their aircraft, Flyer I, nowadays commonly known as the Kitty Hawk. Their claims to being the "first" to fly have been subject to counter claims by various parties.
