Orville and Wilbur
Orville Wright (1871-1948) and Wilbur Wright (1867 - 1912), American aircraft pioneers. The brothers had a bicycle-repair shop in Dayton, Ohio when they were attracted to aviation in 1892. On 17 December 1903, they made what are generally regarded as the first powered, sustained and controlled flights at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. The first flight lasted for only 12 seconds but on the fourth, the machine traveled 59 seconds. They formed the Wright Aeroplane Company in 1909.
