EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant moment in aviation history. Taken in 1911 at Kill Devil Hill, Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, the image showcases a group of individuals gathered around the Wright glider. In the foreground, we see three men seated: Horace Wright, Orville Wright (one of the famous Wright Brothers), and Alexander Ogilvie. Standing behind them is Lorin Wright, while a group of journalists completes the composition. The photo exudes an air of excitement and anticipation as these pioneers prepare to embark on their groundbreaking journey into the skies. The glider itself stands tall and proud against the backdrop of Kill Devil Hills' picturesque landscape. This snapshot offers us a glimpse into an era when aviation was still in its infancy—a time when dreams took flight amidst uncertainty and experimentation. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and determination to conquer new frontiers. As we reflect upon this historic moment frozen in time, let us celebrate not only the achievements of these visionary aviators but also acknowledge all those who have contributed to shaping our modern world through their relentless pursuit of innovation.
