100 years of flight

One hundred years ago, on December 17, 1903, Wilbur and Orville Wright achieved their pioneering flights at Kill Devil Hillsin North Carolina, in the United States.
At 10.53am, Orville Wright flew 120 feet in 12 seconds and later that same day his brother Wilbur improved this to 852ft in 59 seconds.
