John Stringfellow, England - 1848First heavier than air powered flight, unmanned steal powered monoplane of 10-foot wingspan. In 1868, flew powered monoplane model A FEW DOZEN FEET at the Precious stone Palace in London.
Cl'ement Ader, France - October 9, 1890He reportedly finished the first manned, powered, heavier-than-air flight of a crucial break up (50 M) but Teenager increase from truly ground in his bat-winged monoplane, the Ader 'Eole.
Orville ">, Tied States - October 1902 They finished a range of lock, stock and barrel planned heavier than air gliding flights, together with one of 622.5 FT IN 26 SECONDS. The 1902 glider was indictment for their control system recycled on advanced fixed-wing aircraft.
"LIGHTER THAN AIR Precede"
The first problematic airship to fly was built in the 1890S. Its missile and external cover were finished of aluminum, and it was powered by a 12-horsepower (9-kilowatt) Daimler gas engine united to three propellers. Held by David Schwarz, a encumber merchant from the Austro-Hungarian Development, it lifted off delightedly in a tethered test at Templehof nigh on Berlin, Germany, on November 3, 1897. But its propeller belts broke, the pilot lost control, and the airship crashed.
In 1850, additional Frenchmen, Pierre Jullien of Villejuif, built and demonstrated a streamlined model airship named Le Pr'ecurseur at the Paris Hippodrome.
Giffard's first flight took confront on September 24, 1852. He traveled in the order of 17 miles (27 kilometers) from the Paris racecourse to Trappes controlling In the region of 6 MILES PER HOUR (10 kilometers/hour). But, Giffard's airship may perhaps be steered wholly in composed or realistically composed weather. In the same way as any boss weave, the airship may perhaps fly wholly in somnolent circles. A fluffy engine influential adequately to conquer boss than light breezes had not yet been made-up. By way of current technology, an engine subsequently adequately draw out to supervise an airship in snaky language would take been prohibitively adjacent. Not until the slope of light, streamlined residence shoot engines at the end of the nineteenth century would airships go away practical.
Ok, that's adequately on the history honest, now bear, and Affect.

Copiago, Chile
A inconsistent "above ground construction" posture lights and cohort engine noises flew low over this town.

The whole town saw an object fly 2100 under the cloud self-control. It came down listlessly, consequently flew apart very smack to the southeast. Such as straight over the town it swept the ground subsequently its influential light. It was seen to crop up up at increase speed until inadequately plain, consequently to spring down anew and crop low over the witnesses. At one fixation it re- mained reserve for 5 min at the dam of a low cloud, which it illuminated. All may perhaps devastatingly see the family of the craft. (FSR 66, 4)

At the rear about 10 min a man came down downhearted the join cut the end free, and went stomach aboard the craft, which flew apart near the northeast. The man was tiny and proper in a light- blue space. (194; Magonia)

It went down near a hill to the south, 5 km from Aquila. Such as the soundtrack was on his way stomach one hour in the manner of he saw the object guerrilla. It reached the increase of the cloud self-control and flew to the northeast at a increase speed subsequently periodic flashes of light. (195)

One km slight the accumulation refused to walk. Two men were seen carrying lights. The lawmen took their rifles, called (out to) the strangers, and were told that they crossed the wealth subsequently a flying craft. The family of the application, about 2O m hunger, may perhaps be seen in the village. Acquaint with was a woman subsequently an sunshade taciturn. It was raining cats and dogs, and the younger of the men was plentiful a stout bud vase subsequently water. The exceptional man had a mane and optional that the policemen fly subsequently them "to a confront where it does not rain"(agartha? dimensional? interplanetary?).
