FACT:
Today is National Aviation Day in honor of Orville Wright's birthday.
CONTROVERSY:
There has been some debate on which state is worthy of the title "First in Flight". For those who call North Carolina home (such as myself) there may be some bias since the title is due to the legendary 12 second flight on Dec. 17, 1903, at Kill Devil Hills near Kitty Hawk, North Carolina.
However, Wilbur and Orville spent most of their lives in Dayton, Ohio, where their outlandish idea of human flight were manifested into reality. It was there where those dreams turned to sweat that brought us to where we are today.
QUESTION:
I'm curious to hear from those who have a passion for aviation - past, present, and future - What state do you believe is most deserving of the title "First in Flight"?
Today many may take these amazing machines for granted thanks to the wild ideas of those Wright Brothers.
What also may be taken for granted is the crew members needed to operate these jets safely everyday. Do not settle for having "enough to get by" in your flight department. Let your crew get the support and rest they need and reach out to myself and the team at In-Flight Crew Connections should you ever need additional support in any of your business aviation personnel needs.
Happy National Aviation Day.
Happy NATIONAL AVIATION Day!
National Aviation Day is observed in the United States on August 19 each year to celebrate the history and development of aviation.
It also celebrates the birthday of Orville Wright who, together with his brother Wilbur, made significant contributions to powered flight. Orville made the first flight for 12 seconds and 120 feet around the site of Wright Brothers National Memorial on December 17, 1903.
