They Knew How to Fly… BEFORE the Wright Brothers
Before the Wright brothers took flight at Kitty Hawk, dreamers like Leonardo da Vinci, Otto Lilienthal, Samuel Langley, and Alberto Santos-Dumont were chasing the sky. From Renaissance sketches to daring glides and failed aerodromes, aviation history is full of forgotten pioneers. This video explores aviation before the Wright brothers—flying machines, gliders, early airplanes, and the global race for flight.
