HIGH FLYERS

In 2003, the world celebrated the 100th anniversary of the first aircraft. Orville and Wilbur Wright in the USA came up with the first heavier-than-air plane. It took them more than 4 years to make their idea come true.

Its historic 12-second flight on December 17, 1903 was the starting point of the world aviation.

In 1908, Léon Delagrange became the first air passenger when he flew with French pilot Henri Farman in Paris. Six years later, on January 1, he first scheduled air service operated between St. Petersburg in Russia and Tampa in Florida, the USA. From here on aviation started to develop very fast.

Aviation becomes a popular means of transport. Innovations in material and engine-making technology help make lighter, stronger and safer kinds of planes. Travelling by air is more affordable. People can fly anywhere like a bird.
