"Anceztaz of the week"-The Wright Brothers

Photobucket
The Wright brothers, Orville (August 19, 1871 – January 30, 1948) and Wilbur (April 16, 1867 – May 30, 1912), were two Americans who are generally credited with inventing and building the world's first successful airplane and making the first controlled, powered and sustained heavier-than-air human flight, on December 17, 1903. In the two years afterward, the brothers developed their flying machine into the first practical fixed-wing aircraft. Although not the first to build and fly experimental aircraft, the Wright brothers were the first to invent aircraft controls that made fixed-wing powered flight possible. Taken from wikipedia. Air planes are an essential part of traveling. Air planes are the only form of transportation that can take you the farthest distance in the shortest amount of time. The Wright Brothers changed history when they created the airplane and it is only right to pay homage to our ancestor of the week! You can expect to see an Anceztaz shirt in the near future dedicated to the Wright Brothers.
