Wright B Flyer birthday flight

After two cancelled flights the previous week due to weather, yesterday was 70 degrees, sunny and no wind ... what a beautiful day for a flight! It was a true experience of a lifetime. Wilbur and Orville Wright built America’s first airplane factory in Dayton in 1910. The Model B was its first product. This plane, nicknamed the “Brown Bird,” is a Model B lookalike—built to modern standards with modern materials and components. Because it is classified as an experimental aircraft passengers aren't allowed to leave the confines of the airport but I was able to ride along for two take-offs and landings! A big "thank you" to the Wright B Flyer volunteers who helped make this happen!
