Fliers Fail to Match Wright Brothers First Flight
KILL DEVIL HILLS, N.C. (Reuters) - Modern-day aviators failed on Wednesday to duplicate the pioneering flight of the Wright brothers a century ago as a replica of their primitive 1903 flying machine flopped into the mud in the birthplace of powered human flight. On a rain-soaked field in Kill Devil Hills, North Carolina, where the bicycle mechanics from Ohio achieved the age-old dream on Dec. 17, 1903, an exact copy of the wood-and-cloth Wright Flyer trundled down a wooden rail but failed to generate the speed and lift it needed to fly in an unreliable breeze.

But the Way I Understand it... Our Very Own BMW went Higher/Farther/Faster then the WB Boy's did in 1903...
