On 17th December, 1903, their biplane The Flyer, flew for 12 seconds at a height of about three metres.
The engine had four water-cooled cylinders set in line, lying horizontally, a large flywheel and two gearwheels to drive the pusher propellers in opposite directions.
The Wright Flyer achieved the first successful flight of a heavier-than-air machine in 1903.
Other people besides Orville and Wilbur Wright had been practising with gliders for many years but these two brothers were the first to produce a plane that made a successful powered flight.
