Both brothers initially run a shop in Dayton, Ohio. The store itself sells and fixes everything related to motorcycles. Meanwhile, they both began studying flight problems in 1889.
Furthermore, they can make as many as 3 gliders with twin wings. The three aircraft were tested on the beach of Kitty Hawk, North Carolina.
The three aircraft that have been made have been tested as many as 1000 times the flight and it was successful flying well. Then, they both make a light motorcycle engine. This machine is installed in the fourth plane, called the Wright Flyer.
At 10:35 am at the time of the cold and cloudy weather on December 17, 1903, the Wright Brothers flew for the first time a four-mile-long airplane near the hilly sand area of Kitty Hawk, North Carolina.

They watched a plane named Wright Flyer driven by Orville, who managed to air for 12 seconds duration. Later, the plane descended again after reaching a height of 37 meters from the ground.
The flight itself became the first plane flight in history. The plane was originally named Wright Flyer, but it is now much more popular under the name "Kitty Hawk".
To see and find out more, now the original Flyer aircraft is located at the Aerospace Museum in Washington DC, USA.
Meanwhile, during the first Wright Brothers flight, Orville Wright controlled the plane, while Wilbur was seen running alongside after releasing his grip to balance the aircraft.
