Orville and Wilbur invented the first mechanically propelled aeroplane, while other designers built planes that crashed, Orville and Wilbur invented the first mechanically propelled aeroplane. Those ingenuity that came before them inspired the Wright brothers in many ways, as well.
Orville Wright and his brother, Wilbur, developed a fascination with flight from a young age. The brothers dedicated their lives to the invention after being inspired by Alphonse Penaud's rubber band propelled helicopter. They first discovered success manufacturing bicycles, including the Van Cleve and St. Clair.
