The first powered flight of the Wright flyer on 1903 December 17.
Orville Wright flew for 36.5 meters at 6.8 mi/h for 12 seconds.
He's in superman position.
Wilbur Wright must be the observer.
He didn't fly very high: altitude about 10 feet; the Wright brothers were not daredevils.
They had no desire to repeat the Icarus story
The location is sand dunes called Kill Devil Hills, 4 miles south of Kitty Hawk, North Carolina.
The picture was taken by John T. Daniels of Kill Devil Hills Life Saving Station using Orville Wright's tripod.
