  • When you examine the Wright Flyer, the first successful flight closely you will be amazed by the numerous ingenious technologies these high school dropouts developed 100 years ago. Their design was so complete that even the current modern aircraft use the same principles of flight. Let's explore the amazing engineering behind the Wright Flyer.

How can I believe that the two brothers were able to fly about 40 minutes in 1905 in Dayton, Ohio over a flat pasture if they still needed a hill and strong winds to fly in May 1908.
      In a letter published in L'Aerophile, in which the two brothers gave technical details about all their claimed flights in May 1908, they also specified the wind speed as being between 4 and 9 m/s. (see L'Aerophile 15 June 1908, gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/bpt6k6550620m/f232.image.r=wright%20mai.langEN ).

    Wilbur Wright did not 'drop out' of high school. He completed the curriculum, but due to his family relocating at about the time of his graduation, he never received his diploma. Orville DID drop out after completing 3 years of high school. This would have been noteworthy these days, but back then is was pretty common, and both brothers would have been considered fairly well educated.

      A reason that has not been considered is to keep the engine as far away from the pilot as possible.
      Capt. Ferber lost his life when he was crushed by the engine which was located directly behind him.
      Had he been flying a Wright 2 Model A, he would have probably survived.
      There have been several Wright replica crashes that are quite similar to Ferber's
      ill fated flight. All attempted to make a bank and turn from a low altitude and dug a wing into the ground.
      The pilots of the Wright replicas walked away unscathed.

      Until 1908, everyone else had accepted the Cayley's model that the task was to find a way to achieve stability on the analogy of a ship in a sea of air. The Wrights had a different analogy which enabled others to make spectacular advances.

    These guys were beasts! Their plane was the reverse of today's prop planes. Elevator in front of the big wings and props in the back. It also had no rudder, as there was no tail. This plane was not at all easy to control, especially that hip assembly for wing warping. The wing warp idea came about when one of the brothers was fiddling around with an empty bike tire tube box and noticed how it distorted when he twisted it diagonally. Also amazing is that those 2 wooden props were cut by hand using a draw knife, yet achieved 87% efficiency!

      SB: Not sure that there first attempts to carve a prop were successful. A test on one found in museum showed that
      it was defective. It produced more Drag than Thrust when the RPM was over 300 rpm. They could test small airfoils in their wind tunnel. It was not large enough to test an 8 ft. rotating prop. The best they could do was a static test of thrust using their machine shop motor.
      On site, they used a spring scale for a static test of Thrust.
      They were pleasantly surprised to find that their prop produced more thrust than it did in their calculations.
      The Wright Propellers
      Hyde started by bringing wooden propellers, hand crafted to the Wright specifications, to the NASA Langley Full Scale Tunnel, owned by NASA Langley and operated by ODU. Then he progressed to authentic reproductions of two Wright gliders and then, earlier this year, the Wright Flyer.
      All were tested by ODU engineering professors and students.
      SB: Were they 20 years ahead of their time? Not convinced that the first props were 87% efficient.
      I think that Hyde had his props tested at the NASA wind tunnel in Virginia. I think they were about 82% efficient
      at around 300 rpm and 35 mph.
      A prop on a museum flyer replica was tested and found to produce more Drag than Thrust. This seems like a
      good way to get rid of defective props because the museum replicas are not expected to fly.
      Wright Props - www.researchgate.net/publication/237462889_Evolution_of_Wright_Flyer_Propellers_between_1903_and_1912_
      "The Wright propellers were 20 years ahead of their time," said Professor Robert Ash,
      Wright test program manager for ODU. "They were able to convert engine power into thrust with the efficiency
      required to enable a small and heavy gasoline engine to propel the Wright Flyer. The December 17, 1903,
      flight was not possible without the Wright propeller designs and this contribution has been largely overlooked."

      SB: I don't think it has been overlooked. It has been over-simplified. Without a large wind tunnel, it was very difficult
      to carve a prop that matched their theory for how it should be done.

    I find it interesting that you are astonished that "7th grade dropouts" could be elegant engineers. Anyone with curiosity can learn. You don't have to sit in a class to figure things out. We call them autodidacts (self taught). R. G. LeTourneau was one such man. Take a look at the movie "October Sky" to see someone learn principles of physics on his lunch hour, at a picnic bench in a coal mine. Curiosity and determination make the engineer. He will self educate if needs be. These men were gifted, in spite of their formal education, they excelled. Any one can.
    See also Thomas A. Edison (attended school for 12 weeks), Henry Ford (self taught watch repairman) Our history was shaped by such informally educated people.

      Sorry guy, but that mindset, while pervasive, is not really true.
      Ford was a great businessman, not an engineer. He did not engineer anything, he just found a really good way to -be incredibly racist- sell cars.
      Edison again, was a good businessman, who was extremely litigious and cutthroat. He famously took credit for the achievements of his team of engineers, as well as trying to smear people like Tesla and Swan.
      I haven't heard of R.G. LeTourneau before now, but given that when I google him everything that comes up is some evangelical website, (and that the Wikipedia article references mostly sources made by his descendants) it makes me rather suspicious. Also the guy was massively racist so I seriously doubt he's much different to the likes of Ford.
      The Wrights, again, are known in actual engineering circles as not really all that great engineers, but malicious businessmen.
      What do all these people have in common? Money to afford good PR, and a willingness to be utter assholes to competitors and the people who actually did the work.

      I have actually gone through school without dropping out, to become a professional engineer, and it boils my blood to hear people say "its not really that hard, it's just about determination" because it's totally false. No-one is learning advanced engineering on their lunch breaks (in fact Homer Hickam never even dropped out of school), it takes a huge investment of time and being surrounded by people who can pass on information from previous generations of engineers. Even then, many still fail to get anywhere in engineering. The reality of the situation is that not anyone can make it, but anyone with enough money and luck can convince everyone that they did.

      So developing the assembly line is a business enterprise, not an engineering endeavour? He brought cars to the masses, when it was a rich man's hobby before. He also designed and built a working auto with a 2 cycle, water cooled engine. That sounds like engineering to me.
      But, him aside, what about the others mentioned? Don't discount the assertion by keying in on one part you find disagreeable.

      The Wright's had a weight limit for the engine and thought they needed only 8 hp. Their home-made aluminum block 4 cyl. engine was ingenious. By 1906, they had an air-frame that could handle a heavier engine. Not sure why they did not try the 40+ hp radial engine that Langley used. Instead, they used an improved variant of their original engine with almost twice the displacement. This was the engine they arranged for a French company to produce for their anticipated European built Wright Flyers.

      The Wright Brother were self-taught aeronautical engineers but they didn't know squatoosh about internal combustion engines. The engine was designed and built by Charles Taylor, a mechanic who worked in the Brothers' bicycle shop in Dayton. Taylor also built the wind tunnel that was so instrumental in the brothers developing a successful wing design and assisted them in testing wing designs and developing lift data. He also ran the bike shop for months at a time while the Brothers were off in Kitty Hawk testing their designs. Charlie Taylor is an almost forgotten hero in the history of aviation.

      Lockler is right. There were dozens of people trying to produce a practical airplane.

      The 1903 prototype had dozens of problems. The Wrights did not consider it to be
      a practical airplane but the test flight indicated they were on the right track.
      By the end of 1905 they thought they had all the data they needed and stopped flying.
      They were so sure of themselves that they came up with a more robust design
      and built a stronger motor, the 1906 Taylor-Wright upright 4. This new prototype
      was never tested because they were certain it would fly. They built at least 3
      copies of this design. One they shipped to France in 1907. The other was built
      to demonstrate at Ft....., Virginia for the Army. The third was a back-up.

      I am not sure that I know what you are talking about.
      A modern graphic probably illustrates how the Wright's controlled an unmanned gilder.
      There were 4 lines or strings. They terminated on two ends of a hand held stick.
      By tilting the stick you could warp the wings of the glider. The lines also tethered the gilder allowing it
      to be flown like a kite. I don't recall seeing anyone do this but there are probably videos at the Kitty Hawk website.
      If we can find them, then we can decide for ourselves whether or not flying a glider this way could be described as dancing.
      The illustrations I saw are probably found on wright-brothers history sites.

      The first real flight was performed by Alberto Santos - Dumont, who built a real proper plane which would take off unassisted. Even a rock can "fly" when tossed by a catapult lol The plane 14 bis gave birth to modern aviation.

      @@agauerm Dumont used the kayak paddle propellers on his early plane prototypes that he used on his balloons. They were not aerodynamic, but beat the wind like a table fan producing more eddies and flutter than directed thrust for lift. Dated photos of his planes bear this up. He changed the propeller design after the Wrights exhibited in France...and his plane and others suddenly worked.
      If the aviators in Europe had designed the propeller properly, then they would have been the first to powered, controllable duration flight.
      Lighter motors and proper propellers is all they were lacking. Their wing and tail design was superior to the box kite design, and became the defacto shape after 1910 to this day.
      Many inventions that didn't work were only missing one or two eureka elements.

    O “14 BIS” foi o primeiro avião mais pesado que o ar a conseguir decolar por seus PRÓPRIOS MEIOS, SEM AUXÍLIO DE CATAPULTA. Esse fato histórico teve lugar em Bagatelle (centro de Paris), no dia 23 de outubro de 1906. Nessa data, Santos Dumont decolou com seu “14 BIS”

Esse trilho sobre o qual o avião dos Wright se encontra estava ligado a um sistema de polias e catapulta. Tem vídeos mostrando o sistema. Ou seja, o "avião" dos Wright não decolava sozinho. Logo não era um avião.

    "The replica didn't fly." - The weather on December 17th at Kitty Hawk was unusually cold that day. The barometric pressure was very very high. The air density altitude on that day was about a 1000' below sea level from a normal day. That's why they flew. Had they not, it would have only been a few days and they would have. When they went back to Ohio the air density altitude was about 5000' and no, the aircraft didn't fly. It took them some time to figure out that barometric pressure was important when it comes to flying.
    If you look farther into it, they tried the replica again a few days later and it DID fly. John Denver, the late singer, built a replica in the late 80's.... IT FLEW!!!!
    "They were catapulted into the air and glided."- They did not use a catapult at Kitty Hawk. You are referencing the very 1st filming of a flight in Ohio. That was the 4th airplane they had built in Ohio (its here on TH-cam) . There was no catapult at Kitty Hawk…. There was no catapult…. At Kitty Hawk. If a fighter jet gets catapulted off the end of an aircraft Carrier, does it then not fly? They didn't build their catapult until 1904.
    "Dumas was the first to fly"‐ According to the definition of heavier-than-air flight, no he didn't. His airplane did not have a proper propeller, it did not have a way of controlling the aircraft via ailerons or wing warping or a rudder that moved or elevators that went up-and-down…. He hopped. He used Hargrave cells, the same thing a box kite is made of, not a wing that generates lift by air moving over it. Just as you guys wanna claim the Wright brothers were catapulted... his airplane was just like a paper airplane. It was a powered box kite.
    "Dumont is credited in 1906 with the first aeronautical achievement by the French."- The FAI wasn't incorporated until....... 1906. So of course they're wouldn't be anything before that year. They were also in Europe. The Wrights were in the U.S. When they went over in 1908 to show off the Wright flier, all of the French naysayers and doubters printed public retractions that they were wrong. Because of how the airplane flew they knew that the Wright brothers had been flying for years, while they were still only on short, uncoordinated, uncontrolled hops. They even said we are beaten, we no longer exist. That's how much they knew the Wrights had done it.

      The first flight was made by Santos Dumond in 1906. The Wright brothers allegedly flew before him, but there is no record of this. Santos Dumond did it in front of the Eiffel Tower with half of Paris watching. And the plane took off by itself, not with that catapulted bullshit.
