Were Observers at Kitty Hawk to Start Hundred Years of Powered Flight?
KITTY HAWK — A hundred and five years ago on December 17, 1903, Wilbur and Orville Wright with a few witnesses present, first flew a powered aircraft some 120 feet on the North Carolina shore. The Wright brothers built a balanced and controlled glider based upon their observations of pigeons. They had determined the curvature of the wing causes air to move faster over the upper surface and produces greater pressure underneath the wing creating lift. It took the news media several years to report on the success of the first flight. For the last hundred years all aircraft with the possible exception of UFOs fly using this principle.

Disc shaped craft have been seen to hover and to fly virtually straight up indica
