Slartibartfast Posted December 17, 2010 Posted December 17, 2010 Some amazing advances have been made in flight... I wonder what the next 100 years will bring at this rate we will all me back on horses... Seriously though without people like this in all walks of life we go nowhere to those people Quote
NS13Jarhead Posted December 17, 2010 Posted December 17, 2010 One of the people I work with has something like this posted. Very funny, since we are all civilian contractors working for the Government. Quote
+RAF_Louvert Posted December 17, 2010 Posted December 17, 2010 . HEE HAW! Yuppers Jarhead, you want something FUBAR just get the government involved. And yes, truly amazing advancements in flight in the last century. Boggles the mind really. . Quote
+Hasse Wind Posted December 17, 2010 Posted December 17, 2010 What the Wrights did was great, but one mustn't forget that they weren't the only pioneers of flight. There were quite a few people all around the world who greatly contributed to the birth of flying machines and their theory and practice. You could say that the Wrights were standing on the shoulders of giants. The subject of early aviation history is extremely fascinating, with all the crazy balloon pilots, gliders and everything.
