Early Flight Experience the early history of the airplane--from some of the earliest notions of flying, through the first decade of  powered flight.
This gallery evokes the mood and excitement of a time when wings were new
by depicting a 1913 aeronautical trade show. The labels are written as if
it were 1913, to give the visitor a sense of how the achievements of the
Wright brothers and other innovators were first introduced to the public.http://www.nasm.si.edu/exhibitions/gal107/gal107.html |
