The Wright Cycle Company is located at 22 South Williams Street, Dayton, Ohio
45407. This is one of four major sites of the Dayton Aviation Heritage National
Park. |
The two brothers, Wilbur and Orville Wright operated a bicycle shop in this
building, see Figure 1, from 1895 to 1897. This is where it all started and unlocked
the secret of flight.
The knowledge the two brothers
learned while manufacturing their own bicycles allowed them to learn the essentials of
constructing the world's first flying machine. Today, the Dayton Aviation Heritage
National Park Service operated the Wright Cycle Company. |
