Join me in this detailed tour around the original Wright Flyer (Kitty Hawk, Flyer I or the 1903 Flyer), the first plane to have flown on December 17, 1903. Invented and flown by brothers Orville and Wilbur Wright.

It is now on display at the National Air and Space Museum of the Smithsonian Institution in Washington DC.

My Wright Military Flyer video is coming in several weeks.
