This is the "1903 Wright Flyer." This plane was created by Orville and Wilbur Wright and flown for the first time by the brothers on December 17th, 1903.

The first plane was created by Orville and Wilbur Wright. They had spent about four years on the first successful plane before deciding to take it out. The plane was a "Canard Biplane with one 12-horsepower Wright horizontal four-cylinder engine driving two pusher propellers via a sprocket-and-chain transmission system. Non-wheeled, linear skids act as landing gear. Natural fabric finish - no sealant or paint of any kind." (1) It had been named the "1903 Wright Flyer." It started getting planned and developed in 1899 after building and trying the three unsuccessful gliders. The plane flew for the first time at Kittyhawk, North Carolina, on December 17th, 1903. The plane had a 12-second flight with Orville Wright flying it. The plane made it 120 feet before landing. On December 17th, 1903 the best flight of that day had been a 59-second flight with Wilbur Wright working the controls and Orville Wright flying. That flight made it 852 feet before landing on the ground.

This is the engine used in the "1903 Wright Flyer". It had been used but then restored in 1916.

Gasoline Engines during the Industrial Revolution

# data[].attributes.body
Gasoline Engines weren't just used for automobiles and machines during the Industrial Revolution. Gasoline Engines were also used for planes during this time. A gasoline engine was actually used by Orville and Wilbur Wright on the "1903 Wright Flyer" (a.k.a. the first airplane). The plane had been a role model for the other planes that had been made later in time. However, even though gasoline engines helped the plane become more popular it hadn't caught on as the automobile had. By 1914, there were less than 1,000 planes. Automobiles had gasoline engines as well but were more popular than planes because they had been used more by the public. The Wright brothers knew they had to have an engine that was at most 200 lbs and produced at least 8 horsepower.

This shows how planes started from nothing and were very unsafe but eventually got safer and faster over time.

Over time planes started being used for war and eventually carrying things including people. A good way of seeing how planes evolved over time is through the movie Top Gun and Top Gun Maverick. In the movies "Pete Maverick" (Tom Cruise) went from using an old fighter jet to now using a newer and more high tech fighter jet. However, just because he didn't know how to fly at first didn't stop him from being able to fly in the movies. He started out not knowing at all but learned over time. Then, when he made his new movie Top Gun Maverick he showed that he could do it again by learning how to fly a new fighter jet. He also rubbed some of his education off onto his best friend's son "Rooster" (Miles Teller). In the scene, Miles Teller and Tom Cruise run and get into a new fighter jet and figure out how to fly it. Tom Cruise just does what he always does and figures it out but Mile Teller had a little bit of a hard time. That's when Tom Cruise jumped in and told him what switch to flick and that's when Miles started to see that he can do it but it takes some improvising to do so. Over time People have learned to adapt to new inventions and finally learn how to learn. Planes started out from nothing but with a little bit of help and some good minds we were able to evolve them and make things not only easier for ourselves but easier for life itself.

I chose this topic because it sounded extremely interesting and with being related to the Wright Brothers I thought it would be cool to see how their creation came into the light and got better over time. If I'm being completely honest I thought that I was crazy for going into this topic because there wasn't much on it and I had to do a lot of thinking and researching of the past in order to fully see how everything has changed. I learned a lot about this topic actually. I didn't realize how much one invention would change our lives and how much work it took to get there. Learning about this topic made me realize that it took a lot out of the Wright brothers in order to make something this important. I really enjoyed learning about two very famous people who I'm related to and how what they created changed not only my life but millions of others as well. Padlet is a very good but unique way to do projects. I really liked how I had a choice in what I did and how I was able to do it.
