Join Bobblehead George at Kill Devil Hills (near Kitty Hawk), North Carolina for a look at the Wright Brothers National Memorial... the site of the first airplane flight!
On December 17, 1903, in Kill Devil Hills, North Carolina, the Wright Brothers, Orville and Wilbur, achieved the first powered, controlled, and sustained flight in history. Their aircraft, the Wright Flyer, took off at 10:35 AM and flew for 12 seconds, covering a distance of 120 feet. This groundbreaking event took place at a site that would later be designated as the Wright Brothers National Memorial, honoring their pioneering efforts in aviation. The significance of this flight cannot be overstated; it marked the beginning of the era of aviation, leading to profound changes in transportation, military strategy, and global connectivity, ultimately transforming society and the world economy.
