Description: Over a hundred years ago, on a windswept beach, Wilbur and Orville Wright took to the air - and, all too quickly, came down. Very soon, aircraft transformed warfare; they offered safe, speedy travel to distant places; the most advanced versions even touched the edge of space. This story of aviation provides tales of dreamers and visionaries.
