Essay / Orville and Wilbur Wright and The Airplane - 807
Orville and Wilbur Wright were born four years apart Orville was born August 19, 1871 in Dayton, Ohio and Wilbur Wright was born April 16, 1867 in Millville, Indiana . They were two of seven children of a well-traveled bishop of a church. It was on one of these trips that he brought them a toy helicopter to play with. They said this toy started their love of flying and encouraged them to learn more. They died disappointingly in (Wilbur) 1948 and (Orville) 1912, but not before changing the face of aviation. Even though the famous Orville and Wilbur Wright are no longer with us, their heroic, go-getter attitude still shines through in many modern inventions and novelties. I believe the Wright Brothers are heroes of avian industrial advancement and have symbolic importance because they were the first to build and fly a controllable aircraft heavier than the airplane. They also symbolize how you can do something great without traditional continuing education. First of all, you can thank Orville and Wilbur Wright for that plane trip to California or the gift you had to ship to Germany for some reason. Orville and Wilbur Wright painstakingly changed the speed with which goods, ideas, and people converged and traveled. For example, the Wright Brothers are the reason you see such a diverse and cultured crowd on the streets of New York. This is also the reason why there are Chinese restaurants in America and McDonald's in China. The Wright Brothers helped people do many things, including having fun flying in their leisure time, having ease and comfort in their travels, and saving lives through Star Flight and rescue planes. It is for these reasons that we see their heroic character. The Wright brothers didn't just create an old flying ... middle of paper ... whatever they could do to build and fly this incredible thing. This is why they are considered heroes. Like the men who traveled to the moon, they made the impossible possible. At that time, their tiny flight of 200 to 800 feet was compared to the exciting scientific advances of the moon landing. Small town Orville and Wilbur Wright are heroes, not because of an elaborate education, but because of ambition and the desire to find answers to the impossible. . They give people a hope that inspires them to keep moving forward to find those answers. They show that even if you come from a mediocre educational background, you can still do something incredible and life-changing in your life. We discovered that Orville and Wilbur Wright are not only symbolically heroic, but they also play a huge role in the aviation industry and how far it has come. They are definitely heroes.
