Hey have you read the paper yet!   We the Wright brothers have just invented a flying machine.
So why not come down and check them out because in 1899 we put wing warping to the test
By flying a five foot box kite in the shape of a biplane when the wings were twisted one end use to more lift and rise starting a turn to the wrong direction. We have always shown the whole picture to the public.HEY look at one here.  
As you can see our engine powered flying machine is sustainable in the air,
To the plane we had to   pratice gliding that way we could master the art of control before attemting motor-driven flight.
As you may know the death of british auronout   Percy Pilcher in another tragic gliding accident in 1899 that’s what gave the opinion to believe that pilot control was the key to a sussecesful and safe flight.beforee that in our experiment we were regarding control as the third part of the   “flying problem” on the basis of obsevation we concluded that birds changed the angle of the ends of their wings to make   their body “roll right or left”.
In 1900 we traveled “kity hawk,carolina” to begin our gliding experiments we sent our first letter to Octave Chanute which suggested the antlatic coast for regular brezzes   and a soft landing area.
In 1900 we flew the glider only a few days in early autumm in kitty hawk [you know cause it was frezzing cold]
We tested wing warping using control ropes from the ground. We also tested unmanned while suspendend from a small homeade tower we made about a dozen free glides on only a single day.
[yea impressive I know but it gets better]
We glide four miles south to the kill devil hills and we were encouraged because we had no accidents.
