Our attempt at flight on December 17, 2003 replicated almost exactly the Wright brothers' first public attempt at flight, May 23, 1904. Lack of wind, engine trouble, and Wilbur got as far as the end of the rail...and went nowhere. |

We had rain, which led to ignition trouble in the engine. There wasn't enough wind. But we tried, and we almost got a flight. But we flew in another way, thanks to the incredible people who stuck with us the entire soggy day, and cheered us on. We cannot express our gratitude deeply enough.
